SPRING FRUIT TAPIOCA

2 cups water

⅓ cup Minute Tapioca

1¼ cups sugar

½ teaspoon salt

2½ cups rhubarb, cut in ½-inch pieces

1 cup shredded fresh pineapple

Place water in top of double boiler and bring to a boil over direct heat. Combine Minute Tapioca, sugar, salt, and rhubarb; add to water and bring to a brisk boil, stirring constantly. Place immediately over rapidly boiling water and cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from boiling water—mixture clears and thickens as it cools. When slightly cool, fold in pineapple. Chill. Serve with plain or whipped cream. Serves 8.
