I don’t know if rhubarb is still available further south, but here it’s still hanging around. So I thought I’d share my latest post from the Plan to Eat blog: lacto-fermented rhubarb chutney.
You can head over to read the full recipe plus more photos. I highly recommend this ferment as an addition to homemade yogurt or pancakes. Yum.

I am so happy to be announcing the winners of last week’s giveaways. The products are all so wonderful that I wish I could give you all one of everything. One (or two) of you had to be chosen, though, so I did just that using Random.org. Winners Winner of Reducing Phytic Acid in Your…
Dearest Annabelle, When I was pregnant with your biggest brother I was terrified of one thing throughout the whole pregnancy. I was terrified that he would be a girl. I was not prepared then to have a daughter. Two years later I had a similar sense of dread when your second big brother was waiting…
Thank you all for your warm welcome of Ruth. She is fitting in quite well with the rest of the little ones and we are grateful for a fairly smooth transition thus far. Papa is, once again, the world’s greatest de-gasser of babies. And so long as that has been dealt with, Ruth is a…
I’ve received quite a few books over the past few months on the various topics that interest me – mostly sustainability, gardening, and cooking. This is where I share some of the highlights from that bookshelf. And, if you haven’t read The Nourishing Homestead or the review we posted with author Ben Hewitt, I highly…
You guys, I no longer have a laundry pile; it is now a laundry wall. It is probably six feet tall which means I can barely reach the top myself. But I’m okay with that. We are now at the point in the rain cycle where doing laundry in town seems imminent. Pond water, however,…

Thank you! I have actually been looking for a recipe for rhubarb chutney for a few weeks now- my rhubarb is going crazy, and I’m trying to put it up in as many ways as possible. I haven’t lacto-fermented any, though… I want to do some lacto fermented rhubarb as well as some chutney.
I forgot to mention I did make some naturally fermented rhubarb soda- the recipe isn’t my own, the link to the original is in my post, but it’s loosely based on the ginger beer recipe in Wild Fermentation. http://crunchythriftycool.blogspot.com/2011/05/rhubarb.html
I would love to try this. Just a question, is it ok to use regular rhubarb? I’m not growing it and my grocery store doesn’t have organic rhubarb.
Linda – I don’t see why not!
Oh my goodness! You’ve treated us with a jewel! Thanks!
I noticed that in Nourishing Traditions on page 111 it says that strawberries are not suitable for lact-fermentation because they are too acid. I hope no body ruined a recipe.
soooooooo sad!!!! i didnt push it down enough. i left mine out for 3 days and tossed it into the fridge w/out opening it to look at it. just opened it to use w some pancakes and it looks like a science experiment. a layer of green and fuzzy on top. i am so sad about it, and i cant bring myself to throw it away LOL. and it was the last of our rhubarb for the season. oh well ya live, ya learn, right 🙂
should i just scrape the fun off the top and use it ?! 🙂
