Mysterious rhubarb.

Yes! A rhubarb is a synonym of my childhood. Still, in my garden in Koło my grand father cultivates this brilliant plant. All the time my grand mother in spring and summer prepares me a sweet compote. I remember that all summer I ate it with my brother - just like that, directly from the ground. I'm the great fan of rhubarb, but attention - rhubarb leaves contain poisonous substances, including oxalic acid which is a nephrotoxic and corrosive acid that is present in many plants. So, do not eat it too much! But for me it is so tasty...  Last month I made a great tart for my name-day! Delicious!
