Rhubarb grows in many Canadian gardens and is plentiful at farm markets and grocery stores in spring and early summer. Its tangy flavour and pinky-red colour is wonderful to incorporate into simple desserts like this one. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of honey-sweetened whipped cream.
