Old-fashioned Rhubarb Crisp
Delicious and easy for summer. Some recipes call for mixing rhubarb with
strawberries, but I prefer all rhubarb. Serve with ice cream, whipped cream,
or crème fraîche. Rhubarb is very sour. It will need the full amount of sugar
indicated. It is a wonderful, old-fashioned dessert.
