Equipment
- weighing scales
- small saucepan
- sieve
- small mixing bowl
- spoon
Ingredients
- 100 g trimmed rhubarb (roughly 2 stems - cut into batons)
- 100 ml freshly squeezed orange juice
- 100 g icing sugar
Instructions
- Start by making some rhubarb and orange juice. Add the rhubarb and orange juice to a small saucepan. Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and poach the rhubarb until soft, around 5 minutes.
- Turn the heat up and reduce the mixture by half. Then pass the juice through a fine sieve and discard the stewed rhubarb.
- Add the icing sugar to a small bowl, and spoon in 4-5 teaspoons of juice, stirring the glaze to a smooth paste, until you have no lumps and have achieved the desired consistency.
- For a thicker paste add less juice. For a thinner drizzle icing add more juice.
- This quantity of icing is enough to completely cover the top of a 900g (2lb) loaf cake. Just use less of it if you only want a drizzle of icing.
