Roasted Rhubarb Salad

Published on June 22, 2017 by Stephanie Kay

Tart, sweet and sticky, this rhubarb salad is a delicious summer side dish! Although typically known for desserts, rhubarb works incredibly well in sweet and savoury dishes, and this roasted rhubarb salad with goat cheese and walnuts shows us just that.

Rhubarb Salad

 

I’m going to be honest, the flavour in this salad totally took me by surprise and I am obsessed with it! Rhubarb is one of those vegetables that I always see at my farmers market, and although I have good intentions of buying it, I never quite know what to do with it. Aside from loading it into a Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp or making a compote, I had seen rhubarb used as a savoury topping to grilled meats, so I figured there must be a fun way to use it in a salad, and oh am I ever pleased I did!

The flavour of this roasted rhubarb salad is similar to adding fresh berries or fruit to a salad, it adds a burst of freshness without making it overly sweet. On its own, rhubarb is a very tart vegetable and I would not suggest adding it to the salad raw, however, when roasted (with a little drizzle of honey of course) it turns into the most tender and delicious treat. I opted to pair the soft and sweet rhubarb with some salty goat’s cheese and crunchy walnuts for a little contrast. The dressing for this salad is really simple because I wanted to showcase the rhubarb itself, but a balsamic dressing would work well too.

You can easily make the roasted rhubarb ahead of time, and add it to the salad as needed, but be sure to make a little extra because I can assure you you’ll be eating it right off the pan.

This rhubarb salad calls for mixed greens, however, spinach or baby kale would work well too.

    Can this be made ahead of time and assembled when needed or is the roasted rhubarb supposed to be warm?
