South Farm Suarez/Rhubarb Strawberry Shrub

This recipe is courtesy of our CSA employee Diane! She wanted me to add that this shrub does not have to be put in an alcoholic drink! This mixes nicely with seltzer!

Ingredients:

6-8 stalks rhubarb
1 pint strawberries
2 cups cane sugar
1/2 cup honey
4 sprigs rosemary
1 inch knob ginger root
zest of 1/2 lemon
1 tablespoon white balsamic vinegar

Instructions:

Add sugar and honey to 3 cups of water in large sauce pot, simmer over medium heat.
Chop rhubarb into 1/2 inch pieces, add to sugar water.
Cut ginger in half, add to mix (ginger does not need to be peeled).
Reduce heat to low simmer once sugar & honey have dissolved.
Cut stems off strawberries, cut in half, add to pot.
Cover and Simmer over low heat 2 hours.
Add rosemary & lemon zest, simmer 1 hour, low heat.
After all fruit has broken down, approx 3 hours, turn off heat & add white balsamic vinegar.
Let sit at room temperature to cool down & further infuse flavors, approx 1 hour.
Taste for flavor balance; should be lightly sweet w/ desirable bitter/sour undertones, & an edge of acidity. If too bitter, a half cup honey, dissolved in hot water, can be added.
Strain mixture to remove fruit & stem matter.
Mix will retain some residue, which is fine, or strain a 2nd time through fine mesh strainer if less residue is desired.

Shrub can be combined w/ Rosè wine & Prosecco for a refreshing sangria, or gin, bourbon, or tequila for a summer cocktail.

Whichever combination, stir mix over ice, finish with lemon zest.

Rhubarb-Braised Chicken Thighs

Still got rhubarb blues? You’re sad because you don’t like chutney? No worries, put this out on the table and share a dinner with friends via zoom or in person! https://www.chowhound.com/recipes/rhubarb-braised-chicken-thighs-28384

Ingredients:

8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 3 pounds)
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 medium shallots, finely chopped
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh ginger
1 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/2 cup dry sherry
1 cup low-sodium chicken stock
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice (from about 1 medium)
1 pound rhubarb, medium dice

Instructions:

Heat the oven to 375°F and arrange a rack in the middle. Pat the chicken dry with paper towels, then season generously with salt and pepper.
2Heat the oil in a large, heavy-bottomed, ovenproof pot over medium-high heat until shimmering. Place half of the chicken thighs in the pot, skin side down, and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook the second side until golden brown, about 4 minutes more. Transfer the thighs to a plate and repeat with the remaining chicken.
3Reduce the heat to medium and remove all but 2 tablespoons of fat from the pot. Add the shallots, ginger, and cardamom, season with salt and pepper, and sauté until the shallots soften, about 2 minutes. Pour in the sherry, scraping the bottom of the pot to release any browned bits, and reduce the liquid by half, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the chicken stock, honey, and orange juice and stir to combine. Return the chicken pieces and any accumulated juices to the pot, turn the chicken to coat, and bring the mixture to a boil (the chicken pieces should be skin side up).
4Place the pot in the oven and cook until the sauce is vigorously bubbling around the sides and the chicken, when cut with a knife, is no longer pink, about 35 minutes. Remove from the oven, scatter the rhubarb pieces between and around the chicken, and return the pot to the oven until the rhubarb is knife tender, about 15 minutes more.
