Some Fun in the Kitchen

Tonight for dessert? Strawberry, rhubarb, raspberry crisp. All fresh from the market (save the raspberry that is fresh from my freezer). The first time I have purchased rhubarb. The first time cooking with it. And the first time tasting anything with it. We shall see how it turns out. Stay tuned for pictures and another update.

This was the beginning of the dessert. The strawberries and rhubarb were cut and sliced. The raspberries dropped in whole. Some sugar. Some flour. Some lemon juice. And I let it sit. The topping contained some additional flour, some additional sugar, a little bit of butter, and chopped hazelnuts. Because we were both a little occupied with the action surrounding the Corleone family in their second saga, dessert might have cooked a little too long, bubbling over on to the cookie sheet I thankfully placed underneath the individual ramekins. It was hot and sweet and would have gone perfectly with a scoop of fresh vanilla ice cream on top.
