For me, the first signs of spring are finding fresh wild garlic in the nearby forest and buying rhubarb.

I have been always a great fan of these pink stalks! As a child I used to eat the stalks straight from the garden, now I prefer making rhubarb crumble and jam!

Here is my recipe that I’ve been making for years – it’s gluten-free, vegan and so easy to make. Enjoy!
