Cherry Compote
cookpad.japan @cookpad_jp
I always make this compote when American cherries are in season.
The alcohol will evaporate off, so this is delicious even for those who don't drink alcohol. For children, you can replace the white wine with water. Add the Kirsch before turning off the heat to evaporate the alcohol. By the way, you can also make this with Japanese cherries. Recipe by Pu-kosan

Peach Compote
I used some bruised peaches to make compote. You can eat it plain, but I also recommend using it to make tarts or jelly. Here are the peach compote pieces with yogurt in a different dessert recipe.-In Step 2, if your peaches are soft, be careful not to simmer them for too long.-If you're making a lot at once, you can boil the peaches whole. If boiling whole, extend the boiling time a little. If you want to store the compote for a longer time, increase the amount of sugar and store in a sterilized jar. The amount of sugar in this recipe is reduced, so enjoy as soon as possible. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221
Peach Compote
I bought lots of peaches, so I wanted to use them while they were still fresh.If the peaches are ripe, you should be able to slightly reduce the simmering time; feel free to make adjustments as you like.If the skin has a deep colour, simmering the peaches with their skins gives the compote a beautiful pink colour (when using white wine).I recommend serving these the following day. Recipe by Pu-kosan

Recipe by **yuri**
Fig Compote
I make these every year when I manage to get some small figs. These fruits are also easy to use for jam. They're delicious.If you don't like the skins on the figs, you can peel them off.This tastes great even if you don't have red wine.Boil the larger figs for a little bit longer.It's probably better to add a little more sugar if you will be storing these for 1 month.

Strawberry Compote
Peach Compote
I received many peaches, so I made them into a compote before they went bad.Additional note: I added the simmering time.It depends how ripe the peach is, so cook until soft enough to poke through easily with a chopstick. Recipe by Shinamoro-rus
Cherry Jam (Confiture de Cerises)
I bought a lot American cherries on sale, and decided to make this jam. I accented it with kirsch. When I was child, I loved "sour cherry cake" and this jam is very similar to the flavour. I am so happy with the results.To retain the flavour of kirsch, add it after removing the jam from the heat. You can use any liqueur you like.The beautiful color of the jam is created by simmering over low heat for less than 10 minutes, so do not boil vigorously. If you want to thicken the sauce, take out the cherries, and reduce the sauce itself. Recipe by vegeful
Fig Compote
My grandma used to make these every summer. They are just cooked in sugar water. Although they are so simple, they are so good!These are just a bit less sweet than jam. If you make them even less sweet they are light and delicious, but they go bad quickly even if you store them in the refrigerator, so eat them up quickly!The figs exude a lot of moisture, so don't add too much of water. Recipe by OBU

I make this compote every year, and I alternate between making it with white and red wine.Make sure it simmers gently and do not let it come to a full boil.This compote is delicious in tarts or baked snacks (it keeps for 1 week)If you use whole pears, simmer them for about 1.5 hours Recipe by Cookie shiasu
Easy Pear Compote
I've loved pears since I was a child. They are delicious fresh, but I wanted to use them when cooking both sweet and savory dishes, so I made a compote.Since the pears will be simmered, choose pears that are on the firm side. You can serve the compote with ice cream, chop it up and put it in yogurt, or use it for hors d'oeuvres, tarts and other sweets. Recipe by Usagi no Cima.
Pear Compote in Jelly With Panna Cotta
I wanted to enjoy eating some pears that were a bit lacking just as-is.I think you can use 200g of the syrup from the pear compote.Even pears that are not so sweet will become amazingly delicious when poached like this.The pear compote becomes really delicious when it's chilled in the syrup (the syrup becomes tastier too), so to make the jelly, use well chilled syrup that has been re-heated. Recipe by Yukijirushi
Peach Compote and Jelly
I bought two peaches. I turned one into compote and then into a gelée, and ate the other with ice cream.When eating as a compote, it seems that you can use 25% of the water for sugar.I use agar. The transparency shows a faint hint of the peach color. Make sure to boil the agar. It is different than using gelatin (it's more transparent!). Recipe by commeline.It's delicious paired with blancmange, which you can learn how to make here: https://cookpad.wasmer.app/en/recipes/148229-simplified-recipe-blancmange
Peach Compote Tart
I made peach compote, so I decided to use it to make tarts. They're also good with fresh peaches.＊; Yogurt Custard Cream goes well with these tarts too.-If you make the compote a day ahead, the flavors soak in better. It's delicious.＊ I used store-bought tart crusts here. If you want to make homemade tart crusts, please take a look at.-The jam is used to make the tart glossy. Thin out the jam with a little water and then brush it on. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221

I make this every year when pears are cheap and in season. I alternate making it with red and white wine.-They keep in the refrigerator for 1-2 weeks.-You can try them with vanilla ice cream or baked snacks. Recipe by Cookie shiasu
Chocolate Blancmange with Cherry Sauce
I added chocolate to my usual blancmange and garnished it with a sauce made with seasonal American cherries, and my family loved it.In Step 5, keep mixing for at least 2 minutes over low heat to cook it through. When you are pouring the blancmange into the mold in Step 6, prepare all of the molds and pour it quickly, directly from the pot to the mold. Otherwise, the surface of the blancmange will not come out smooth, since it sets quickly. Recipe by Nu-shi
Cherry-Port Sauce
This sauce is great for those “special” occasion dinners / meals when you want to impress. It is very easy to prepare and adds a rather decadent touch to Beef Tenderloin, Prime Rib, Cornish Game Hens, Roast Duck, Venison, etc. [Adding a dash cognac or brandy is optional]
Cherry Tomato Compote with Lemon Jello
The tomato compote tastes great on its own, but it's extraordinary when combined with lemon, which is why I combined it with this refreshing and invigorating jello.You can increase the amount of sugar and lemon juice if you want. Let it chill until ice-cold to serve. Recipe by Narisawa
Cherry Preserves
We have a cherry tree in our yard, so I make this every year. Adjust the sweetness to taste.If you cook the cherries for too long they will become discolored, so just simmer them for about 20 minutes quickly over medium heat. Recipe by Yukijirushi.

Strawberry Compote Pudding
I ❤️ strawberries! When I lived in Indonesia 🇮🇩 it was very difficult to get sweet and watery strawberries 🍓. So when I moved to the States, I’m really spoiled for having strawberries all year round. I started creating different recipes using this red tiny fruit and this pudding is one of my favorites!#heirloomIf you like my recipes, please follow my Instagram @jenscookingdiary @jenscookdineandtravel
Cherry Tart
I thought about a cherry pie, but I went with a tart instead. It was my first attempt at it and I would say it turned out… better than expected. Maybe it’s a personal preference, but I think it’ll taste even better after it comes out of the fridge.

My father in law has a sour cherry tree in his front yard and my mother in law gave me the oatmeal cookie pack because my husband loves oatmeal cookies.
