Recipe story
Rhubarb was cultivated in medieval European monastery gardens as a medicinal plant, while wild strawberries were foraged from forests. Their combination in tarts became popular in rustic French and English cuisine, where rhubarb was used to balance the sweetness of strawberries. This recipe has been adapted for the Air Fryer, preserving the freshness of the fruits.
