Rhubarb Conserve




My sister-in-law gave me the recipe for this and I finally made it tonight. It is as good as she said it would be and I can't wait to try it with my morning toast! Bagels or english muffins would also be very good. I picked enough rhubarb for this recipe, then that got me motivated enough to pick more so I could make a pie tomorrow..... :)






3 cups sliced fresh or frozen rhubarb(do not thaw frozen rhubarb)


1 cup sugar


1/2 cup golden raisins or regular raisins


2 tsp. finely shredded lemon peel


1/4 cup lemon juice


2 tsp. finely shredded orange peel


1/4 cup orange juice


2 tbs. water- omit water if using frozen rhubarb


1/8 tsp. salt


1/2 cup chopped walnuts




Enjoy!
