Rhubarb Jam
Description
Winter food preservation at home. It's rhubarb season — spring! Juicy, green, and healthy rhubarb works not only for ordinary compote, but also for a tasty, healthy jam you can treat friends who drop in for tea or the kids with. This original jam is easy to make from simple, everyday ingredients. Rhubarb jam is very popular in the USA, yet for some reason we rarely make it here. And that's a shame — it's a very tasty jam; I recommend giving it a try. Enjoy
