- DescriptionRhubarb has a fruity, mouth-puckering tang. It looks like blushing celery. Like lemon or lime juice, rhubarb boosts other flavors. We like it in chutney served with pork roast. But its most famous use is sweetened and cooked with strawberries in a pie. This classic mixture gives rhubarb its other name, pie plant. As a change of pace from strawberries, try combining rhubarb with orange or ginger.

SPECIALTY
Storing Rhubarb
Rhubarb should last for about 4 days in the refrigerator's crisper. Keep it tightly wrapped in plastic. If you want to store it long term, wash, cut into the desired length, and place in an airtight container. It will keep in the freezer for about 9 months.
Storing Fennel
Fennel will keep for about 5 days if you store it in a plastic bag in the refrigerator crisper. Unless using fennel within a couple of days, trim off the stems and store them separately so they don't leach moisture from the bulb.
Storing Chayote
This squash should keep for up to 4 weeks when stored in a plastic bag in your refrigerator's vegetable drawer.
Storing Tomatillo
These fruits should keep for at least 2 weeks, and up to a month, when stored in a paper bag in your refrigerator's vegetable drawer. If you plan to use them within a couple of days, they will be fine on the countertop.
Storing Okra
To store okra, wrap it in a paper towel and tuck inside a paper bag, then place in the least cool section of the refrigerator. Try to use it soon after purchase, as okra is quite perishable. It should keep for 3 or 4 days. - Recipes
