    Rhubarb Sponge Cooking Directions:



    1. Stew the rhubarb until it is soft and leave in a dish to cool.






    2. Make the sponge by creaming the margarine and sugar then adding the eggs and flour.

    3. Put the sponge mixture on top of the Rhubarb.

    4. Bake at 190c or gas mark 5 for about one hour or until lovely and golden.

    5. Serve hot with your favourite topping or on its own.






    Taste Ye Back: Great Scots and the Food That Made Them describes the old Scottish practice by children who used to dip rhubarb sticks into bowls of white sugar, with many of the contributors wondering if this is why their generation have bad teeth and many fillings!
