Can you use frozen rhubarb instead of fresh and if so, do I have to adjust liquid

Hi, Wendy. Yes, you can use frozen rhubarb but you should thaw it first. Also, since the frozen rhubarb will be less dense once thawed, you should use a little bit more than called for in the recipe. No need to adjust liquid.
