  1. In a medium saucepan, combine ¾-pound rhubarb with ½-cup sugar and ¾-cup water.

  5. Lightly grease six 6-ounce ramekins. 
  6. Fill a large bowl with iced water. 
  7. In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over the ½-cup cream; let stand until softened, about 5 to 10 minutes.

  9. Stir the softened gelatin into the saucepan until dissolved. 
  10. Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl, and set the bowl in the ice bath, stirring occasionally, until the custard is cool and begins to thicken, about 15 to 20 minutes. 
  11. Pour the mixture into the ramekins, and refrigerate until set, about 4 hours. 
  12. In a small saucepan, combine ¾-pound rhubarb with 1/3-cup sugar.
