    Method

    Rhubarb Compote

    In a saucepan over medium heat, combine rhubarb, sugar and water (if using fresh rhubarb). Cook for 8-10 minutes stirring until rhubarb is soft and easy to break down with a fork and mixture is thickened. Remove from heat and allow to cool.

    Note: If rhubarb mixture seems too dry, add 1 tbsp of water at a time to the pot and cook until desired consistency is reached.

    Grease and flour an 8.5″ x 4.5″ loaf pan.

    Pound Cake

    In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar and baking powder. In another bowl, whisk together milk, Wesson Canola Oil, egg, egg yolk and Yuzu juice. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and stir to combine making sure there are no lumps in the batter. Pour half the batter into prepared pan and dollop 2/3rds of the rhubarb compote on top spreading to cover. Top with remaining batter. Dollop remaining rhubarb compote on top and use a spatula or knife to swirl the rhubarb into the batter.

    Glaze

    To make glaze, whisk together all ingredients.

    Assembly Method
    Bake for 55 to 60 minutes or until a tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Remove pan from oven to a wire rack and allow cake to cool for 20 minutes. While cake is still slightly warm, turn cake out on to the rack and allow to cool completely. Once the cake has cooled, spoon the glaze over the center of the cake as desired. Allow glaze to set before serving.
