Ingredients

1 cup water
1/2 cup sugar \| I use all natural cane sugar (white sugar is fine.)
2 cups fresh rhubarb (about 3 stalks)
20 oz strawberries (rinsed, quartered)
1/4 cup slivered almonds
1-2 tablespoons fresh mint (julienned or minced)
2 tablespoons rhubarb simple syrup
1 tablespoon fresh orange juice
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tsp lemon and orange zest for garnish

Steps:

Make Rhubarb Simple Syrup
In a small saucepan, stir together sugar and water over medium-high heat; bring to a light boil, stirring occasionally until sugar dissolves.
Add cut rhubarb to sugar water; cook 1 minute, remove pan from heat, cover and let stand about 10-15 minutes, until rhubarb is crisp-tender. Remove rhubarb with slotted spoon, reserving rhubarb syrup.
Assemble Salad
In a medium to larger bowl, stir together orange juice, lemon juice, and two tablespoons rhubarb syrup.
Add cooled crisp-tender rhubarb and quartered strawberries, gently toss to coat in salad dressing. Add julienned or minced mint. Toss in slivered almonds, serve room temp or chill up to an hour before serving.

Ingredients

1 cup granulated sugar
2 cups chopped rhubarb
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups strawberries, quartered

For the rhubarb simple syrup: Put the sugar in a small saucepan with 1 cup water. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar starts to dissolve, about 5 minutes. Once it reaches a simmer, add the rhubarb and reduce the heat to medium low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the rhubarb is softened and the syrup turns light pink, about 25 minutes.
