Tips for Selecting Rhubarb:
-Select stalks with a bright hued that are straight and firm.
-Leaves should look fresh, crisp and blemish-free. Smaller leaves indicate younger, tender stalks.
-Wash and remove leaves just before use. Leaves should be discarded as they contain a poisonous toxin. Never eat the leaves either raw or cooked.
