Title: GINGERED RHUBARB CRISP WITH VANILLA ICE CREAM
Categories: Chinese, Desserts
Yield: 12 servings
Stephen Ceideburg
2 1/2 lb To 3 pounds fresh rhubarb
4 Lumps "ginger in syrup" *
1 c Sugar
3 tb Cornstarch
Vanilla ice cream
CRUMB TOPPING:
1 c Flour
1 c Sugar
1 pn Salt
3/4 c Chilled unsalted butter, cut
-into small pieces
* or crystallized ginger, each about 3/4 inch in
diameter
Preheat oven to 375'.
Rinse the rhubarb and pat dry. Trim off all the leaves
and roots (they contain oxalic acid, which is toxic).
Cut stalks into 1 inch pieces and place in a large
bowl.
Coarsely chop the ginger and mix with the rhubarb.
Sift together the sugar and the cornstarch; toss with
the rhubarb. Transfer to a 2 1/2-quart shallow baking
dish. Set aside.
The topping: Combine the flour, sugar and salt in a
food processor; pulse a few times to mix. Add the
chilled butter and process until the mixture turns
crumbly, just a few seconds. Sprinkle the crumb
topping over the rhubarb. Bake until the topping turns
golden brown and the rhubarb is bubbling.
Serve warm with scoops of vanilla ice cream.
