Learn how to make Strawberry Compote with this easy and simple recipe. Strawberry Compote is a thick sauce made with crushed strawberries in a sugar syrup. If you get into the technicalities, there is the coulis, which is a fruit sauce, made with pureed and sieved fruit and cooked with sugar and citrus. While you can find a savory compote as well. Basically these refer to the state where the ingredients are cooked and made into a thick sauce that can be added to bring zing to your dishes.
This week I am going to be doing condiments and will be sharing some recipes that can enhance a dish or make a dish with it. With this compote, I made Strawberry Lemonade and as a dressing for cheesecakes.
