Best Plum Raspberry And Red Wine Compote Recipes

EASY RASPBERRY COMPOTE

Steps:

• Place the raspberries, maple syrup, vanilla, Cointreau, and water in a saucepan. Heat over medium heat. When it starts to bubble rapidly, stir constantly for 1 to 2 minutes until thickened and the fruit breaks down.
• Reduce the heat until raspberries bubble at a low simmer. Cook 10 to 12 minutes until thickened and broken down. Serve warm or refrigerate until serving (store refrigerated up to 1 week).

PLUM COMPOTE

Steps:

• Combine the sugar, wine, one cup of water, cloves, cinnamon and lemon zest in a saucepan large enough to hold the plums. Bring the ingredients to a boil, and cook, uncovered, for 5 minutes.
• Add plums, and bring mixture back to a boil; lower heat, and simmer plums for 10 to 20 minutes, depending on their ripeness, until they are tender but still hold their shape. Some plums will be ready before others; remove them as they are. Then when they are all cooked, return the plums to the syrup, remove from heat and let cool.
• Chill plums in the syrup. Serve over vanilla ice cream or frozen yogurt with some of the syrup, or serve with their syrup topped with whipped cream or creme fraiche.

STONE-FRUIT COMPOTE

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, combine fruit, honey, pinch of salt, water, and desired flavor combination (optional). Cook over medium-high, stirring occasionally, until fruit is soft, 8 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a pint-size jar and let cool.

FRUIT COMPOTE

Steps:

• Stir together pears, peaches, plums, sugar, orange juice, lemon juice, lemon zest and vanilla bean in a 2 1/2-quart souffle dish or casserole with tight-fitting lid. Cook, covered, at 100 percent power in a 650- to 700-watt oven for 9 minutes, stirring once.
• Remove from oven and uncover. Add cherries, raspberries and strawberries; re-cover and cook at 100 percent power for 2 minutes longer.
• Remove from oven and uncover. Stir gently and allow to stand, covered, for 5 minutes.
