We immediately begin to look for fresh asparagus, new onions, little red potatoes, the first garden peas, leaf lettuce, homegrown radishes and, of course, rhubarb. Teaming a fruit that’s available all year round with one that’s highly seasonal work# well, especially when they’re fresh bananas and rhubarb. Once a hard-to-get tropical treat, today the honey-like banana is a staple that’s always available. Rich in potassium, bananas also make a contribution of iron, vitamin 86, and niacin. They are low in sodium, high in bulk and almost completely fat free, making bananas a wise choice for all kinds of diets. One of the first seasonal fresh fruits of the year is rhubarb, a harbinger of spring. Botanically speaking, rhubarb is really a vegetable, but since it’s almost exclusively used as a fruit, it is considered one. Rhubarb is healthful, too, providing vitamins A and C, potassium and magnesium. Select rhubarb with fresh looking, firm, crisp-tender and bright pinkish-red stalks. They should be fairly thick, but not oversized, to avoid toughness. Keep rhubarb cold and humid. Fresh Bananas with Ruby Sauce combines the mellow taste of bananas with tangy sweet rhubarb. Make it as a colorful dessert or a special breakfast dish. The sauce can be prepared ahead of time, reheated and poured over freshly cut bananas. THE CHOWAN HERALD Banana-Rhubarb Crisp is another dessert that can double as early-morning fare. It resembles a pie with its crunchy crust. Served warm, it’s fine alone or with ice cream. Fresh Bananas with Ruby Sauce 1 lb. fresh rhubarb, cut into one-inch pieces Y« cup fresh orange juice % to one cup sugar Vi teaspoon grated fresh lemon rind Va teaspoon cinnamon Dash salt 6 bananas one-third cup slivered almonds (Optional) In medium saucepan combine rhubarb, orange juice, sugar, lemon rind, cinnamon and salt. Bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer, partially covered, about 10 minutes or until rhubarb begins to fall apart into strands, stirring oc casionally. Chill. At sawing time, peel bananas and cut in half lengthwise and crosswise. Place one banana on each of six dessert plates and top with rhubarb sauce. Sprinkle with almonds. Makes six servings. Banana-Rhubarb Crisp 1 lb. fresh rhubarb, cut into one-inch pieces. 6 tablespoons fresh orange juice, divided 6 tablespoons granulated sugar Dash salt 1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with one tablespoon water Vi cup light brown sugar, packed 1 cup Bisquick V 2 teaspoon cinnamon Va teaspoon nutmeg l /2 cup coarsely chopped walnuts V 4 cup butter or margarine 4 medium bananas In a medium saucepan combine rhubarb, four tablespoons orange juice, granulated sugar and salt.

In a large bowl, mix light brown sugar, biscuit mix, cin namon and nutmeg. Cut in butter until crumbly. Stir in walnuts. Cut bananas into one-inch chunks, toss with remaining two tablespoons orange juice and layer over rhubarb in casserole. Sprinkle with crumb mix ture and bake in 400 degree oven for 20 minutes.
