Rhubarb-Strawberry Coulis
Most people think souffles are difficult desserts that require lots of last-minute work, not so! The white sauce (made in the direction above) and coulis are a snap and both can be done a day or two ahead. To prevent skin from forming on the white sauce, put plastic wrap directly on the surface. Makes about 2-1/2 cups.


Ingredients:

1/2 pound (one thick, long stalk) peeled rhubarb, cut into 3/8 inch dice
1/2 pound (6 to 8 large) strawberries, coarsely chopped
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup white wine, preferably an off-dry wine such as chenin blanc or Riesling


Instructions:
1. Put all ingredients in a medium saucepan.

2. Cook over medium heat until rhubarb is tender but not mushy, about 10 to 12 minutes.

3. Cool to room temperature.
