Notes

⚠️ Always discard rhubarb leaves because they are toxic — only use the stalks for this recipe.
💧 If using frozen rhubarb, thaw it completely and drain excess liquid, then pat dry with paper towels to prevent soggy bars.
❄️ Store bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or freeze individual pieces wrapped in parchment for up to 3 months.
