Rhubarb is a vegetable (although it is more often prepared like a fruit) whose stalks are very juicy and intensely acidic. Our rhubarb has a fresh and vegetal flavor, with a hint of lemon. Eaten raw, its texture is crunchy and fibrous, but cooked, it quickly becomes very tender.

Flavor Pairings

Rhubarb is delicious in combination with almonds, cardamom, cinnamon, sweetfern catkins, ginger, honey, cheese (ricotta, blue, goat, mascarpone), cream, citrus fruits and berries (its combination with strawberries is well known).

Preparation

To prepare rhubarb, clean it and cut off any remaining leaves (they are toxic). You can choose to peel it or not, depending on how you use it. To eat it raw (dipped in sugar, with a touch of nostalgia!), it is recommended to peel it to reduce the intensity of its fibrous texture, but to cook it, peeling it means losing a good part of its pink color.
Rhubarb can be baked, fried, stewed, poached, or pureed. It can also be made into a very tangy juice, delicious in cocktails. It is most often seen in jams, compotes, tarts, or rhubarb butter, but it can also be used in other types of desserts, and even in savory dishes, such as salads.

Conservation

Rhubarb will keep for several days in the fridge, but can become soft after a few days. To extend its shelf life and crunch, you can wrap the stalks in damp cloth before placing them back in the fridge.

We are transforming local culinary culture

to put the North on the plate

The North,

It is the land here that nourishes us, from the forests to the fields to the Saint-Laurent. It is our connection to the cycle of the seasons.

It is a community of farmers, fishermen and artisans who put their know-how at the service of our food and our gourmet pleasures.

In return, we highlight the fruit of their work through the exceptional condiments that we create and our selection of local products, in a spirit of short supply chain and respect for the environment.
