Rhubarb And Mango Compote Recipes

RHUBARB COMPOTE

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine rhubarb with sugar over low heat. When the rhubarb starts to soften, but before it falls apart, about 5 minutes, use a slotted spoon to transfer it to a bowl.
• Cook down the remaining liquid in the pan until it thickens and turns syrupy, about 5 minutes longer. (This condenses and intensifies the rhubarb flavor.) Add the syrup to the bowl with the rhubarb and let cool. Compote will keep for at least a week in the fridge.

RHUBARB COMPOTE

Steps:

• Place rhubarb pieces into a medium pot and sprinkle with sugar. Stir well to make sure rhubarb is completely covered with sugar. Cover and let rest for 15 minutes, stirring once, so natural juices will be released.
• Bring rhubarb mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring often. Turn down heat and simmer until soft, about 10 minutes. Serve compote warm.

RHUBARB COMPOTE

Steps:

• Cook sugar in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, undisturbed, until mostly melted, 6-8 minutes. Stir edges into the center with a heatproof spatula; cook, swirling pan occasionally, until caramel turns dark amber, about 2 minutes. Stir in rhubarb and 3 Tbsp. vinegar. Partially cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until rhubarb is very soft, 8-10 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl; let cool. Stir in remaining 1 tsp. vinegar; season with salt and pepper.

RHUBARB COMPOTE

Steps:

• Stir together rhubarb and sugar in a large saucepan (off heat); let stand until rhubarb releases some liquid, about 10 minutes.
• Bring rhubarb mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat; simmer, stirring occasionally, until rhubarb has broken down but some whole pieces remain, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Place ginger in a fine-mesh sieve set over a small bowl. Press down firmly with a spoon until juices are released (to yield about 1 teaspoon). Discard solids. Stir ginger juice into rhubarb mixture.
• Let sauce cool completely before serving over ice cream, yogurt, or pound cake, or using to make parfaits.

RHUBARB AND BLUEBERRY COMPOTE

Steps:

• Combine rhubarb, sugar, blueberries, vanilla extract, and cinnamon stick in a pot. Add enough water to barely cover the rhubarb. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until rhubarb is soft and broken down, 30 to 40 minutes. Discard cinnamon stick.
• Cool compote in the refrigerator until thickened, about 30 minutes.

RHUBARB AND MANGO COMPOTE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter a shallow baking dish, and add the rhubarb and mango. Sprinkle the pieces with the sugar, lemon peel and ginger. Toss well to combine.
• Dot the fruit with the remaining butter and bake about 30 minutes, or until the rhubarb is soft but still holds its shape. Serve warm or at room temperature, with the creme fraiche or whipped cream passed separately.

ROASTED RHUBARB COMPOTE

Steps:

• Cut 3 rhubarb stalks into 1/4-inch pieces. Transfer to a small baking dish and toss with 1/2 cup sugar and a pinch of salt. Roast at 350 degrees F until soft, about 25 minutes. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract. Serve over ice cream or pound cake.

RHUBARB RASPBERRY COMPOTE

Steps:

• In a 4-quart saucepan over medium heat, bring 1/2 cup water, 1 cup sugar, and 1 1/2 pounds fresh (or thawed frozen) rhubarb, sliced into 1-inch-thick pieces, to a simmer. Cook until the rhubarb is tender and starting to fall apart, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Fold in 9 ounces fresh (or thawed frozen) raspberries. Let stand until the mixture thickens, about 10 minutes. Serve, drizzled with heavy cream, if desired.

MANGO-RASPBERRY COMPOTE

Steps:

• In a serving bowl, combine mangoes, lime juice, sugar and lime zest, stirring gently to combine.
• Put raspberries on top (do not stir them in.).
• (The compote can be prepared ahead and stored, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 6 hours.) Just before serving, gently stir in the raspberries.

BALSAMIC RHUBARB COMPOTE

Steps:

• In a saucepan simmer vinegar with sugar and gingerroot, stirring, until sugar is dissolved and stir in rhubarb (with reserved liquid if using frozen). If using fresh rhubarb, simmer until crisp-tender, about 1 minute, and transfer with a slotted spoon to a bowl. If using frozen, as soon as mixture returns to a simmer transfer rhubarb with slotted spoon to bowl. Simmer liquid until thickened slightly, about 5 minutes, and remove pan from heat. Stir in rhubarb. Serve compote warm or at room temperature.

RHUBARB COMPOTE

Steps:

• This is prepared in a double boiler. Put a few inches of water in the bottom part of the pot and bring to gentle boil.
• In top of double boiler over direct heat, bring sugar and water to boil. When the mixture is boiling, place the pot over the gently simmering water in bottom of double boiler.
• Add the chopped rhubarb and orange rind to the sugar water mixture, stir.
• Cover and cook, without stirring, for 15 to 20 minutes or until rhubarb is tender. The pieces will remain whole!
• Turn off heat; allow the rhubarb to cool in the pan over hot water. Discard orange rind.
• Enjoy!
• I like to serve this warm or cold, either way it is delicious!
• Serve as is or, just before serving, stir in 1 cup (250 mL) sliced strawberries, cubed mango or pineapple tidbits, good to serve over ice cream, frozen yogurt or a slice of plain cake.
