If so how?
Cooked, sweetened and ready to eat, in pots/containers.
Raw, chopped into inch pieces, and put in large bags, (without blanching) so that you can remove any quantity you like later on. No need to open freeze as a sharp tap on a hard floor loosens the pieces fairly easily! This is the quickest and easiest way if you have a glut of it.
Yes I'm sure we have frozen Rhubarb before! In-fact It's available frozen from supermarkets.
No need to blanch! Storks mostly water anyway! However I would use thick mature
leaves rather than new growth..Enjoy

Don't eat or freeze the leaves! :P
I make rhubarb squash - just chop fine and boil up with water until mush then bottle- i freeze this in small bottles. Not only does it make yummy squash- which you can sieve out the bits from if you like and cook into a fruit leather, but it makes a lovely accompaniment to icecream or cream. You can also freeze it in a slab which makes an easy rhubarb sorbet. Just take it out and stir it every now an again.
You can add vanilla or cinamon to flavor if you like to!

Freezer rhubarb, is this the same as rubber balloons? :D Cheers, Tony.
Started freezing mine having a glut already when i finished clearing my plot i found 5 plants in varies places ::) cannot seem to give them away as every body has a plant and i don't like to waste ;)
I prep mine ready to eat then freeze in what ever size i need..
