Compote, what is it?

According to Merriam Webster compote is a dessert of fruit cooked in syrup. However, for me a compote is so much more than a dessert, it’s a condiment with so many possibilities. When making compote you can use one fruit or a combination of fruit. I used a combo of strawberries, blueberries and mint, but you can use whatever fruit combo you like. I didn’t want to make it overly sweet with sugar, so I combined the fruit with a small amount of agave and balsamic vinegar glaze instead of sugar. This Blackberry Balsamic Glaze is a great option. I also chose to roast the fruit in the oven over boiling on stove top.

Roasting the fruit gives it bolder flavor in my opinion and it’s a lot easier than standing over a boiling pot of fruit.

Typically compotes are used over pancakes, yogurt, cake, and ice cream to name a few. But I also like to use it over soft cheeses like Brie or goat cheese, so delicious.
