Basic Rhubarb Compote
Ingredients:

500 g rhubarb (about 5 stalks)
200 g sugar (3/4 C)
2 Tbsp water
Cooking Instructions:
For best flavor, choose firm, bright red stalks that aren't too thick. Lop off the tops just where it pinches in (before the leaves begin), and trim the bottoms where the stalks were cut. Slice the rhubarb into 1 cm pieces. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the rhubarb, sugar, and water. When the sugar is dissolved and the liquid is simmering, cover the pot and cook until the rhubarb is tender, 5-10 minutes depending on the size of the rhubarb. Cool and store in the refrigerator until needed.
