In our house there is one very clear winner when it comes to puddings - the crumble. Its delicious buttery golden topping can cover a variety of flavours, and is often the way of choice for using up garden fruit. In fact due to an unfortunate childhood encounter with a bug ridden berry, it is not easy to get Arthur to eat garden fruit. However it is always easy to get him to eat crumble! We like it with custard, with cream, with ice cream, with tinned milk, cold or hot the crumble is a winner.
So when challenged to make the perfect pudding crumble had to be it. Having finally been able to get out in the garden at the weekend, the snow and frost having past, I noticed a lovely clump of young rhubarb just ripe for the picking so the flavour was chosen.
