Strawberry Compote
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Strawberry Compote: Cut the strawberries into fairly large chunks and put them in a medium sized saucepan, along with the sugar. Place over medium heat and, stirring occasionally, bring just to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low and cook the mixture, stirring occasionally, until the strawberries are soft and their juices are thick and syrupy (about 10- 15 minutes). Remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice. Place in a covered container and refrigerate.

Strawberry Compote can be used as a filling for turnovers or layer cakes, or as a topping for cakes or tarts. Spoon it over ice cream for a strawberry sundae. Stir into whipped cream or custard to make a Fruit Fool.

Serve it with scones and Devon cream. Or replace the Devon Cream with whipped cream to make Strawberry Shortcakes. It makes a nice breakfast when stirred into plain yogurt, spread on toast, or served with pancakes or waffles. You can make a refreshing Strawberry Drink by spooning some of t he Strawberry Compote over ice. Then add some sparkling water and a small scoop of vanilla or strawberry ice cream.

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 Compote Cherry Compote
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.

Peach Compote 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.

Peach Compote 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 -
