How to Make Rhubarb Compote
- Prepare a double boiler by filling the bottom pot with a few inches of water and bringing it to a gentle boil.
- In the top part of the double boiler, combine the granulated sugar and 1/2 cup of water. Bring to a boil over direct heat.
- Once boiling, carefully place the top part of the double boiler over the gently simmering water in the bottom pot.
- Add the chopped rhubarb and orange zest to the sugar-water mixture. Stir gently to combine.
- Cover the double boiler and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the rhubarb is tender but still holds its shape. Do not stir during cooking.
- Turn off the heat and let the rhubarb compote cool in the double boiler over the hot water (this will help it thicken).
- Remove the orange zest from the compote.
- For an extra fruity twist, gently stir in 1 cup of sliced strawberries, 1 cup of cubed mango, or 1/2 cup of pineapple tidbits just before serving.
- Serve warm or cold. Enjoy your delicious rhubarb compote over cottage cheese, ice cream, frozen yogurt, or a slice of cake!
