Homemade chokeberry compote prepared according to this recipe is very delicate in taste, although a little astringent. It has a fantastic aroma.
How to cook chokeberry compote for the winter.
Sort and wash the black rowan berries.
Dry slightly and pack into jars.
Chokeberry fruits can be poured with apple juice, or with sugar syrup.
If you decide to make a compote with apple juice, then you don’t have to add sugar at all if the juice itself is sweet enough, or you can add it based on your taste.
If you decide to make a preparation with syrup, then you need to cook it using 0.3-0.4 kilograms of sugar and 4 grams of lemon for 1 liter of water.
You can diversify the taste of chokeberry compote by adding slices of pears or ripe plums. You can also take the quantity of fruit at your discretion.
Cover the filled dishes with lids and, when heated to 85 degrees, “boil” 0.5 liter/1 liter jars for 10/15 minutes, respectively.
The final stage of compote cooking is to screw on the lids and wrap them for further sterilization.
When it cools down, send the prepared delicious chokeberry drink to a room where the temperature is below room temperature.
This not only tasty, but also healthy homemade compote will quench your thirst well, provide you with vitamins in winter and leave a pleasant tart aftertaste.
