TIPS
- Give this cranberry compote some natural spice by
adding a tablespoon of grated ginger to the mix.
- Warming spices like clove, cinnamon, and nutmeg
can be added to create a Fall layer of flavor.
- Add blackberries or raspberries to the mix to add
more levels of fresh berry flavor.
- Instead of orange juice, use the zest and juice of
one lemon to create an even more tart and fresh
flavor.
- When cooking fruit and sugar, the mixture will
become very hot and bubbly. Make sure you are
protecting yourself as the mixture can cause serious
burns.
- Let the mixture cool before adding it to
containers to prevent the hot liquid from splashing
and causing injury.
- Always use a sanitized jar or container when
storing compote to prevent the spread of bacteria.
