With a season that typically spans from late December to the end of summer, beginning with intense forced rhubarb from Yorkshire, followed by the later arrival of the outdoor variety that’s woefully under appreciated, rhubarb has finally returned to the menu. Popular in plenty of desserts, rhubarb is particularly versatile, also suited to many savoury dishes.  In celebration of this year’s rhubarb season, Mark Hartstone, chef proprietor of La Fosse at Cranborne in Dorset, has shared a baked rhubarb cheesecake recipe.

Comprising a simple dough base flecked with lemon zest, the rhubarb cheesecake has a filling of quark (German ‘yoghurt cheese’), vanilla, rhubarb and just a touch of cocoa. Baked in the oven for an hour, it’s delicious eaten either warm or cold.

On his rhubarb cheesecake recipe, Mark Hartstone, chef proprietor of La Fosse at Cranborne, said: “It’s not too late to force your home grown rhubarb. An upturned black bin weighted down or a composter will help keep the stems nice and pink.

“Do not forget rhubarb not only makes fantastic desserts but accompanies fatty meats or even goes well with mackerel.”
