Word origin

The term 'pieplant' has its origins in the 19th century, reflecting the common use of rhubarb in the making of pies. The name highlights its culinary significance rather than its botanical characteristics. Rhubarb, scientifically known as Rheum rhabarbarum, has been cultivated for centuries. It was initially used for medicinal purposes in ancient China. Over time, as it became more popular in Europe, its tart stalks were adapted to sweet dishes, especially desserts. The 'pieplant' moniker emphasizes its role in American home cooking, where rhubarb pie became a staple in many households. The popularity surged in the 19th and 20th centuries, making this plant synonymous with summer desserts.
