What happened

And miscalculate how long it takes to cook rhubarb – by which I mean, it takes hardly any time at all.

Why it matters

If you don’t want it to become a delicious, jammy compote rather than hold itself together in tidy little batons that you can arrange into geometric patterns.

Common ground

Everything’s a learning curve, and my family did say: but Dad, does it matter if they’re not symmetrical strips, if it tastes this good?

Perspective signals

No major persuasion pattern has been attached yet, so the source, headline, and evidence should carry most of the weight for readers.

Claim 1: “your rhubarb may not be red at all (most is green when sold)”
SINGLE SOURCE
While web results discuss the color of rhubarb (mentioning that some is green inside or that green stems exist), none of the provided sources explicitly state that 'most rhubarb is green when sold'. The evidence discusses variety and internal color but does not confirm the market prevalence of green vs red rhubarb.

Claim 2: “Follow Tony Jackman on Instagram @tony_jackman_cooks.”

Claim 3: “Tony Jackman is twice winner of the Galliova Food Writer of the Year award.”
SINGLE SOURCE
The claim is repeated five times, but all five cross-references are from the same organization (Daily Maverick). Per the evidence standards, 'corroborated' requires 2+ DIFFERENT source organizations. Since only one organization is cited, it remains a single source.
