If you’re looking to make the most of rhubarb before it makes its way out for the season, try roasting it with a little sugar, balsamic vinegar and a few strawberries for added sweetness. You’ll want to roast the rhubarb until it’s softened and pliable, but still holds its shape. Once cooked, pop it in a jar and keep in the fridge to spoon over yogurt, meringue (it makes a terrific pavlova topping), ice cream, or oats.
