RHUBARB PICKLES
Steps:
- Peel the rhubarb and cut it into neat batons about 1 1/2 inches long and 1/3 inch wide. Place in a flat-bottomed casserole.
- Put the vinegars, honey, grenadine, salt, and star anise in a saucepan and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Turn off the heat and let cool for about 5 minutes. Pour over the rhubarb and cover with plastic wrap. Let cool to room temperature. Taste the pickles for texture. If they're too crisp for your taste, drain the liquid into a clean saucepan, bring it back to a simmer, let it cool for a few minutes, then pour it over the rhubarb again-with the star anise.
- Store in the refrigerator in the liquid. Serve cold.
RHUBARB REFRIGERATOR PICKLES

Steps:
- 1. Pare the rhubarb: cut off both ends, remove the tough outer strings if necessary, cut into 3 inch pieces and divide lengthwise to form slender pickles that readily absorb the brine.
- 2. Crack the peppercorns, juniper berries and allspice in a mortar and pestle to help flavor the brine. If you do not have a mortar and pestle, place them in a sealed plastic bag, set on a hard surface, and whack with a mallet or smooth bottomed pot.
- 3. In a small, non-reactive saucepan, bring the vinegar, sugar, salt and 1 cup of the water to a boil. Boil for two minutes, stirring occasionally to fully dissolve the sugar. Reserve 1/2 cup of water to use later if needed.
- 4. Put the rhubarb in a heat-safe glass container and carefully cover with the boiling brine. Weight the rhubarb to keep it submerged. If needed, bring the remaining water to a boil and add until all the rhubarb is covered.
- 5. Allow the pickles and brine to cool and transfer to a tightly covered glass or plastic container and refrigerate. Wait at least 24 hours before serving. The pickles will keep, refrigerated, in their brine at least a month. Discard if mold develops or if they smell "off."
