" Nothing says summer has arrived in the Midwest quite like the first rhubarb pie out of the oven. 

Seemingly every Midwest farm garden has a rhubarb plant or two. Many family traditions began in the rhubarb patch-picking rhubarb with Grandma, then stirring the kettle while a jam bubbles away on the stove or rolling out a pie crust for that evening's supper.

Rhubarb is so identified with the Midwest, community festivals celebrate it. But did you know Marco Polo is said to have brought this vegetable masquerading as a fruit to Europe from China? And later, Benjamin Franklin brought rhubarb to America from England.

But here in the Midwest is where this humble plant has flourished. As it is plentiful, there are many recipes for pies, cobblers, cakes, sauces, and jams as there are cooks. We have gathered this collection of recipes from many sources, and hope that this cookbook inspires you in all things rhubarb."
