The oxalic acid in rhubarb binds calcium – therefore it is best to serve a glass of milk alongside, which balances this effect.

Ingredients

  • 150 g red-fleshed rhubarb
  • 200 ml red grape juice
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 3 sheets of red gelatin

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Wash and trim the rhubarb, then cut into about 1 cm thick pieces.

  2. 2.

    Combine the rhubarb with grape juice and sugar in a pot over medium heat; bring to a boil. Cover and simmer for about 10 minutes until tender.

  3. 3.

    Meanwhile, soak the gelatin in plenty of cold water.

  4. 4.

    Add the damp gelatin to the rhubarb mixture and stir until it has completely dissolved.

  5. 5.

    Pour the jellied dessert into glasses or bowls and refrigerate for at least 3 hours until set.
