There is a challenge with rhubarb, or rather two challenges: In its raw state it is too angry, aggressively tart. On the other hand, when we cook it, we tend to overcook it, so it falls apart and becomes insipid and boring - sometimes just an excuse to eat a dessert that is too sugary. This is a fun and potentially spectacular way to cook the rhubarb, while leaving it with lots of temperament.
