This weekend, I stopped by Cojean, a French gourmet shop selling fresh, tasty and healthy food Expensive but good. I had a fresh fruit juice but as always a delicious looking dessert caught my eye. I approached and saw this perfect strawberry and rhubarb crumble that just looked awesome. Simple as I like. Simple as I could do it at home. And so did I. Rhubarb is a tasty seasonal fruit, cheap and acidulous. Strawberry perfectly matches and balances the rhubarb acidity. The cashew crumble spices the dessert with a pinch of salt.
Rhubarb and strawberry are a great combination. It’s excellent in pies like the rhubarb and strawberry tart.
