Preparation
Step 1
Wash and peel the rhubarb. Cut into segments about 3 or 4 cm long. Try to make pieces of the same size for an even cooking.
Step 2
In a saucepan, prepare a syrup by melting sugar and honey in water. Poach the rhubarb pieces by dipping them in syrup for 6 min (low heat). We must watch the cooking of rhubarb to avoid letting them stew. Remove the rhubarb chunks, set aside and allow syrup to cool.
Step 3
We will now prepare the crisps. Mix ingredients by keeping out only the thyme leaves, until dough is smooth. On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, place a small amount of batter (1 tbsp) finely and spread in a circle with back of spoon. Bake for about 7 minutes, monitoring the cooking, until the crisps are brown.
Step 4
Remove crisps from the oven, wait about 1 min. Gently loosen and place on a rolling pin, for example, so they take their curved shape, and cool. One can also roll them into cigar-shaped or cone. Once cooled, they can be kept in a metal box, so they remain crisp.
Step 5
Wash the strawberries, then hull. It is very important to wash before hulling or cutting! Cut into two (or more depending on size). In a glass, places pieces of rhubarb and strawberry. Add the cooled syrup and filter (using a fine sieve or a coffee filter for example). If you desire sprinkle with a few thyme leaves.
Step 6
Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve! (And remember the crisps!)
