How Do You Make Strawberry Rhubarb Sauce?
The sweet-tart flavor of strawberries and rhubarb makes a perfect summer dessert. Here’s an easy sauce to make to serve over biscuits or shortcake. It can also be converted to strawberry rhubarb crumble or strawberry rhubarb crisp with the addition of toppings. Pick the rhubarb by pulling the outer stems, leaving the center of the plant. Cut off the leafy part and use just the stems. Wash the stems and chop them into 1 inch pieces. Stir the cornstarch and orange liquor together until all lumps are gone. Put it in a microwave safe container with the liquid from the frozen strawberries or the sugar if using fresh strawberries. Mix this together, then stir the rhubarb pieces in until coated with the sugary solution. Hold the strawberries aside (fresh or frozen). If using fresh strawberries, cut them in half. Cook the rhubarb mixture in the microwave for three minutes. Then add the strawberries. Stir, then microwave for 2 or 3 more minutes. Check at intervals to make sure it isn’t bubbling
