### DRYING RHUBARB

        Wash and remove any blemished areas.  Cut off the pulpy

    ends.
      Cut  into  1/2-inch strips or  1/2-inch  cubes.   To

    decrease
    some of the acidity in the rhubarb (and  reduce the

    amount
    of sugar needed to sweeten), pour boiling  water over

    the
    pieces and let  sit  for  3  to  5  minutes.   Drain.  A

    characteristic
    of the dried product will be brittle.
