Rhubarb Poached In Jasmine Tea With Ginger Recipes

Steps:

• Combine rhubarb, sugar, orange juice, and candied ginger in a large glass or ceramic jar. Let stand, 8 hours to overnight.
• Move rhubarb mixture into a pot and bring to a boil over medium-low heat, about 15 minutes. Sweeten with more sugar to taste and pour into a clean jar. Close with a lid and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

Steps:

• Put the rhubarb, root ginger, sugar and white wine in a pan, bring to the boil and simmer on a low heat for 4-5 mins until the rhubarb has softened. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
• In another bowl, whisk the mascarpone, double cream and icing sugar to soft peaks. Remove 4 tbsp cooled rhubarb and mash with a fork, then fold into the cream mixture.
• Divide the rest of the poached rhubarb between 4 glasses, reserving a bit. Spoon over the cream mixture, then top with a few pieces of crystallised ginger and the rest of the rhubarb. Can be chilled for several hours before serving.

Steps:

• Using the tip of a paring knife, scrape seeds from vanilla bean into a medium saucepan, and add pod to pan. Add sugar, breaking up clumps of vanilla seeds with your fingertips.
• Add wine, cinnamon, and star anise. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring to dissolve sugar. Add rhubarb, and cook for 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and cover. Let stand until rhubarb is soft and mixture has cooled, about 2 hours. Discard vanilla pod, cinnamon, and star anise. Divide among dishes, and serve with yogurt or ice cream.

Steps:

• Bring 1 1/4 cups water to boil in heavy large saucepan; add tea bags. Remove from heat. Cover and let steep 15 minutes. Discard tea bags.

Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until rhubarb is just tender, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Transfer rhubarb mixture to medium bowl. Refrigerate until well chilled, about 3 hours. (Can be prepared 2 days ahead. Cover and keep chilled.) Serve with Mascarpone Cream.
