SUMMER RHUBARB AND BLACKBERRY COMPOTE



Summer Rhubarb and Blackberry Compote image

We tend to assign rhubarb to early spring and blackberries to mid-summer, but in the Pacific Northwest and other places as well, rhubarb is still producing vigorously when the blackberries and raspberries come in. Hence a summer rhubarb compote. In spring, though, use strawberries.

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb rhubarb, ends trimmed, stalks rinsed and cut into 1-inch chunks
2 c water
1 c sugar
3 cloves
1 orange, juice of plus 3 strips orange zest
1 tsp rosewater, or more to taste
1 pt ripe blackberries, raspberries, or strawberries

Steps:

  • 1. Prepare the rhubarb. Bring the water to a boil with the sugar, cloves, and orange zest. Give a stir to dissolve the sugar, then reduce to a simmer, add the rhubarb, and cook it gently until it is just tender when pierced with a fork, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • 2. Lift the rhubarb out of the pan with a slotted spoon and put it in a roomy bowl. Add the blackberries to the syrup for 30 seconds, then lift them out too and add them to the rhubarb.
  • 3. Raise the heat, add the orange zest to the liquid, and boil until syrupy, when fine bubbles appear over the surface, about 10 minutes. When the syrup has reduced, let it cool for 15 minutes, then stir in the rosewater. Pour the syrup over the fruit.
  • 4. Cover and refrigerate. Serve chilled, plain, with whipped cream or over ice cream.

BLACKBERRY COMPOTE



Blackberry Compote image

This simple blackberry compote has the consistency of a chunky fruit syrup and is perfect on a variety of foods, such as ice cream, crepes, yogurt, oatmeal, and ricotta toast. It's a great way to use up fresh berries. Feel free to mash the berries with a fork or potato masher for a smoother consistency. The longer you simmer the compote, the more concentrated the flavors become.
