Answers:
- 1 pound fresh rhubarb (approximately 3 cups cut up)
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup water
sugar, (for addtional sweetening if necessary)

Clean 1 pound of rhubarb and cut into 3/4 to 1 inch pieces. This should produce approximately 3 cups of rhubarb.
Combine sugar and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat and stir until sugar has dissolved. Add the rhubarb and bring sauce back to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook uncovered until rhubarb is crisp-tender, approximately 10 to 15 minutes.
Taste to see if sauce is the desired sweetness. If it requires additional sugar, add 1 or 2 tablespoons at a time and bring sauce back to a boil to be sure sugar dissolves.
Remove from the heat when sauce is at desired sweetness. Serve warm or cold. The sauce can be eaten on its own or it can be served as a topping on other food, such as cake, ice cream, pancakes, and waffles.

I have found a web site for this recipe. Here is the Web site: http://www.recipetips.com/recipe-cards/t... I think that you should sterilize the jars before you put anything in them. You just don't know what has been in it before. Cause when my mother use to make some strawberry jam. She would sterilize the jars. The best way to sterlize the jars is put them in the dishwasher. That is if you have one.
