If the idea of Rhubarb Bruschetta is a little bit strange for you then just imagine your favourite combination of sweet, salty and tart and you have this fantastic appetizer. Plus, if you’re like me and have an abundance of rhubarb in the Spring/Early Summer you have plenty of rhubarb to use.
Just like a tomato bruschetta, salt is a key ingredient in this dish. The Windsor Kosher Salt brings out the flavour of the rhubarb while also helping with the pickling process. The additional sprinkle of salt to finish the dish is the final step to preparing a unique and truly delicious appetizer.

I love Rhubarb but am usually stuck with only a couple of recipes. This sounds amazing!!
Oh MAN Kerrie. I was thinking when I saw the mention of rhubarb bruschetta in the title how great would that taste with goat cheese and then I scrolled through and spied goat cheese. You are a evil cooking genius. I have never likes rhubarb until like maybe the last two years. Now I get it. Weird how your tastes change when you get older. Anyways I am pinning this baby because YUM!!! So unique!
What an interesting combination of ingredients. I love goat cheese as well as rhubarb so I should definitely try making this recipe.
