trivia
Although rhubarb tastes fruity-sour and is prepared like fruit, it is a vegetable. It belongs to the knotweed family and is related to sorrel. Rhubarb contains very few calories, just 14 kilocalories per 100 grams, but the vegetable is rich in minerals such as potassium, iron and phosphorus. It also contains vitamin C and fiber.
The sour taste comes from fruit acids such as malic, citric and oxalic acid. A large part of oxalic acid is in the leaves, so it is better not to eat them. Eating rhubarb is not recommended for kidney and bladder stones. By the way, cooking is the most effective way to reduce acidity. Even when consumed with dairy products, oxalic acid is bound by calcium.
