The number of rhubarb stalks equivalent to one cup depends on how the rhubarb is prepared (chopped, diced, or sliced) and the size of the stalks, but here are the typical conversions:
- Four stalks of rhubarb yield approximately 2 cups of diced rhubarb, so roughly 2 stalks equal 1 cup diced rhubarb
- One medium stalk of rhubarb generally produces about 1 cup of sliced rhubarb, though this can vary with stalk size
- About 15 medium stalks make 6 cups of chopped rhubarb, which means roughly 2.5 stalks equal 1 cup chopped rhubarb
- One pound of rhubarb equals about 3 cups chopped rhubarb, and 3 cups chopped rhubarb equals 2 cups cooked rhubarb
In summary, for raw chopped or diced rhubarb, approximately 2 to 4 average- sized stalks will yield 1 cup. For sliced rhubarb, about 1 stalk may yield 1 cup, depending on thickness
