Very good ice cream. I followed the recipe except that I cooked the rhubarb on the stove top. I wasn't willing to wast all that electricity using the oven, especially when the stove top, in this case, is more efficient. I agree with other reviewers that there is lovely sweet and tart taste. To the reviewer who commented about the rhubarb bits sinking to the bottom - it sounds like you missed the puree step - there are no bits to sink - it's very smooth. The one question I have is could some of the cream be replaced with milk or a lighter cream to produce a lighter result. Thanks to TasteofHome for a nice recipe, and different, to use rhubarb.

Very good. Cooked it on the stovetop as another reader suggested which worked fine.

The BEST ice cream ever. I like one reviewers suggestion of cooking on the stovetop..i may try that..but baking works just fine, too, and really brings out the flavor. I didnt find it too sweet..but it IS very rich..i can do with 1/4 cup for a serving. i eat it very slowly and savor....so so good!!!

This recipe is VERY good, however, WAY too sweet! I would definitely half the amount of sugar and up the amount of cream added to this recipe. If these simple changes are made it would be perfect!

Delicious! Just the right amount of rhubarb flavor throughout. Make sure the mixture is thick enough to prevent the rhubarb pieces from sinking before you stop stirring every 15 minutes. A layer of the rhubarb pieces ended up at the bottom of our container. It still tasted good, but wasn't as well distributed as it could have been if we'd waited a bit longer.

Okay, I was going to give this recipe only 4 stars, not because the end result isn't fantastic--it is! I just find the technique questionable. Baking the rhubarb and sugar, especially covered, and having to stir it in the oven for that length of time seems to me to be both messy and a waste of the oven's energy as well as the cook's. The end result is much more easily achieved by cooking the rhubarb and sugar on the stove top over medium heat. Then it takes about ten minutes, and the sugar is much better dissolved. So 4 out 5 for technique. But this recipe scores extra points over other ice cream recipes for two reasons--1) it is one of the few ice cream recipes out there that does not require a uni-tasking ice cream maker, and 2) it deserves extra points to offset the reviewer who gave it only 4 stars because it tastes too much like rhubarb. I'm still scratching my head at that one. Bottom line is, this is an excellent and easy recipe, which could be made just a little easier by utilizing the stove top.

This recipe was a little out of my comfort zone, as I've never cooked with rhubarb before. I have to say, however, I was pleasantly surprised with the results. This recipe is very creamy and full of flavor. My only thought is rhubarb is a bit overpowering. Next time I prepare this recipe, I'm going to pour it into a graham cracker pie crust before placing it in the freezer. I'm hoping this will give the recipe some contrasting flavors.
