I made Rhubarb Strawberry Crisp last week, but am keeping your syrup recipe for next year when I’ll be able to harvest my first batch of rhubarb. :)
I’ll probably leave the zest and extract out. Not a fan of zest. Do you think I should swap vanilla extract for the orange?
Not sure about the vanilla at all; I’ve never coupled it with rhubarb.
I usually stick to a bit of ginger; or maybe some cinnamon & nutmeg, with walnuts; or orange.
I used the zest & extract because I didn’t have fresh orange peel that the recipes I adapted mine from all called for.
