My freezer held blueberries, cranberries, and rhubarb.
I’m not sure there has been a recipe with all of these combined together in a sauce format.
Actually, I started making rhubarb sauce and cranberry sauce in separate pots. The blueberries were an addition to the cranberries that I thought might look good, and hopefully taste good.
As I was preparing both, I looked at the basic ingredients. Cranberry and Rhubarb are both mouth puckering. The list looked much the same.
In my mind I formed a plan to combine the two. That simply meant throwing them both together in a large pot. Let them simmer and see how they work.
When the taste test took place, I was quite surprised. The taste was very pleasing to my palate. I’ll try it on a few others and see what they think. Of course, there was the minor thing of the cranberry skin being a bit chewy, but otherwise not bad at all.
Will I try this again? Perhaps. I’ve frozen some of the sauce. In a few weeks I’ll try the concoction again. If I am as enthusiastic, I may turn this into a regular dish!
I can’t imagine rhubarb and cranberries mixed but glad it turned out well. You sound like you are enjoying experimenting and that is good. Rhubarb and strawberries are a good mixture too. I have put a cup of cranberries in an apple pie and that was good. Have fun. Quite the violent thunderstorm going on here right now. apparently the end of the Oklahoma tornado !
