How to Make Strawberry Rhubarb Compote
- Wash and hull 1 1/2 pounds strawberries. Chop 1 pound rhubarb into 1/2-inch pieces.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped strawberries, rhubarb, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger, 2 tablespoons lime juice, and the zest of 1 lime.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, stirring frequently until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the rhubarb begins to soften and break down slightly.
- Remove from heat and gently stir in 1/2 pound sliced strawberries to retain their shape and add freshness.
- Let the compote cool completely at room temperature.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and the compote to chill. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
