RECIPE — Is Your So-Called Miracle Diet Failing To Deliver Any Tangible Results?
I must say, the thought of a rhubarb, strawberry, and blueberry cobblerette sends shivers down my spine. However, if you insist on carrying on with this concoction, I suppose I can guide you through the process.
Let’s turn this disaster into something halfway decent, shall we?
Rhubarb, Strawberry, and Blueberry Cobblerette
Ingredients:
- 4 cups chopped rhubarb
- 1 ½ cups fresh blueberries
- 1 cup chopped fresh strawberries
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons small pearl tapioca, or more as desired
- 1 cup raw sugar
- ¼ cup butter
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons raw sugar
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons water, or as needed
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) and butter a 2 1/2-quart baking dish.
- In a large bowl, stir together the rhubarb, blueberries, strawberries, lemon juice, pearl tapioca, and 1 cup raw sugar. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish.
- In a separate bowl, cut the butter into small pieces with a pastry cutter. Mix in the flour, 2 tablespoons raw sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Stir in water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough holds together. Drop small pieces of the dough on top of the fruit mixture.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 50 minutes, or until the filling is bubbly and the cobbler is lightly browned. Allow it to stand for 10 minutes before serving.
Wine Pairing:
To salvage some enjoyment from this dessert, I recommend a glass of Sauternes from Château d’Yquem. The sweetness of the wine will complement the tartness of the cobbler and help wash down the flavor catastrophe you’ve created.
Remember, next time, let’s stick to a classic apple cobbler instead of trying to reinvent the wheel with this rhubarb, strawberry, and blueberry monstrosity.
