Ingredients
- 4 cups Rhubarb (trimmed and chopped)
- 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 cup Heavy cream (cold)
- 2 cups Strawberries (hulled and chopped)
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped rhubarb, 1 cup of granulated sugar, and 1 cup of water. Cook over medium heat until the rhubarb softens and breaks down, about 10-12 minutes.
Step 2
Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the rhubarb mixture to cool slightly. Once cooled, blend the mixture in a blender or food processor until smooth.
Step 3
Stir in 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and set the rhubarb purée aside to cool completely in the refrigerator.
Step 4
In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the rhubarb purée into the whipped cream until well combined.
Step 5
Transfer the mixture to an airtight container and freeze it for at least 4 hours or until firm, stirring every hour for the first 2 hours to ensure a creamy texture.
Step 6
To make the crushed strawberry sauce, combine the chopped strawberries, honey, and the remaining 1/2 cup of granulated sugar in a medium bowl. Mash the mixture with a fork or potato masher until the strawberries release their juices and form a chunky sauce.
Step 7
Stir in the vanilla extract and let the sauce sit for 10 minutes to meld the flavors.
Step 8
Scoop the rhubarb sherbet into bowls or glasses and spoon the crushed strawberry sauce generously over the top. Serve immediately and enjoy!
