The Unexpected Ingredient Guy Fieri Uses In Brownies
By CEARA MILLIGAN
Food Network star Guy Fieri's brownie recipe calls for rhubarb stalks. Rhubarb, which is commonly mistaken for celery's reddish-pink cousin, is a perennial stalk vegetable often incorporated into sweet dishes — such as pies, crumbles, and tarts – and possesses a subtly sweet, slightly sour flavor that becomes more palatable when cooked.
A BuzzFeed staffer reviewed four celebrities' go-to brownie recipes, including Fieri's, and found the rhubarb-chocolate combo to be surprisingly delicious. They noted, "HECK YEAH BATMAN, IT WAS GOOD!! ... The rhubarb not only gave them a nice tart flavor, but it made them super fudgy and kept them moist."
To make Fieri's Mexican rhubarb chocolate chunk brownies, you'll need several ingredients. These ingredients include rhubarb, sugar, flour, baking powder, New Mexico chile (not chili) powder, ground cinnamon, kosher salt, bittersweet chocolate, unsweetened chocolate, butter, eggs, vanilla extract, dark rum, and chopped walnuts.
