In the first 1938 edition of “Larousse Gastronomique,” an encyclopedic tome on gastronomy, editor Prosper Montagné advised treating and cooking rhubarb’s leaves as you would spinach. While the effects may well have proved fatal and left me wondering, “Did they have recipe testers back then?” Montagné may have been on to something.
Indeed, the bright tang that allows rhubarb to be a welcome foil to rich, buttery pastry and custard-based desserts is the same distinct flavor that lends itself to myriad savory preparations. This concept, although unusual for many in the States, is nothing unheard of in other parts of the world. Persians take advantage of its acidity by stirring it into a hearty, herb-packed lamb stew , while the Polish roast it with potatoes and mushrooms in a gratin.
Pickle it. A quick pickle preserves the plant’s refreshing crunch while taming its bite. Bonus: It allows you to infuse rhubarb with whatever flavors you want. Slice it thin or chop it, and throw it in with leafy greens, grain salads or other shaved vegetables for a zesty pop. Or you can serve it alongside charcuterie or even as a topping for a burger, sausage or sandwich as an eye-catching accoutrements.

I had a rhubarb gose the other day. Is beer a vegetable?
Never
This, of course, should read: Ease* up on the sugar
Like a disgusting, fibrous plant stem that is so sour your butthole implodes into the 32nd dimension? I'd rather eat urine-coated razor blades than rhubarb without enough sugar to make the emergency room doctors believe my pancreas has exploded inside my torso.

SEC Moves to Ease Audits for Smaller CompaniesThe Securities and Exchange Commission voted 3-1 to advance a proposal that would exempt public companies with less than $100 million in annual revenue from regular outside audits, part of a broader effort to entice more companies to go public.

Iran scales back commitments under nuclear deal, testing its boundariesThe Iranian government threatened to reduce its compliance even further if the deal's other signatories do not take steps to help ease the burden of U.S. sanctions. Iran’s scaling back nuclear commitments is the result of Trump’s foreign affairs deal making. He is a failure and cannot write this loss off on his taxes. Trump has made the world less safe. The rest of us in the world should continue to do business with Iran as long as they uphold the agreement. Fuck the US, isolate them. What are they going to do, boycott everyone else in the world? Good luck with that. And there is nothing the United States can do about it.
