One of my favorite parts about spring is that rhubarb is in season. For as long as I can remember, my parents have had a rhubarb patch in their garden or yard, sometimes two or three. Rhubarb is a plant with huge leaves and reddish green stalks. The leaves are poisonous, but the stalks are edible and oh, so good! When my brothers and I were little, we’d pick rhubarb stalks, snap off the leaves, and just chew on the tart stems. However, rhubarb is even better cooked. I love rhubarb sauce and rhubarb crisp, but my favorite is rhubarb custard pie. And, my aunt Dixie’s rhubarb pie recipe is the absolute best!
