Salt heightens the sweetness of watermelons and red bean soups, so I thought adding shio-koji to this compote would similarly bring out the natural sweetness of the apples.

In Step 2, make sure to mix it all together well.
The water will come out of the apple faster once the rice malt mixes in, so its okay to boil it for 15 minutes instead of the original 20. Remove the lid after 15 minutes, and boil until there is no water if there is still some remaining (it will evaporate instantly). Keep it warm as-is over low heat. Recipe by Nikonikomakki-
