I have rhubarb in the yard and just came across this treat and am saving it for this season's enjoyment. This is a perfect casual and easy dessert to serve after an outdoor barbecue. I love how the ice cream balances the tartness of the rhubarb. If you prefer, it can also be made with strawberry sorbet in place of the ice cream. This is from: http://ourseasonaltable.com
