How to Make Rhubarb Butter

  1. Wash and chop the rhubarb into 1/2-inch pieces.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped rhubarb, brown sugar, white sugar, lemon juice, and butter.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally.
  4. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 30-40 minutes, or until the rhubarb has broken down and the mixture has thickened to a butter-like consistency. Stir frequently to prevent sticking.
  5. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  6. Transfer the rhubarb butter to a clean jar or container. Allow to cool completely before sealing.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld. Enjoy!
