This years 2. fig season is killing me. No more empty jars for jam and I wont buy some.
Looking for ideas and talking to friends is a good way to get inspiration. The compite was one of them. Eating some of ot with some Skyr as dessert and giving some to my neighbor, I had enough to put two filled freezer bags down for use in the future.
This is a good way to make figs last longer. There is no additional sugar needed. I only used a little pear fruit juice to have enough liquid for a compote. As a seasoning, a bit of cinnamon and ground ginger and the juice of a lemon are nice.
It takes a bit of time to peel and cut the apples, but a 2 to 3 ratio from apples to figs works fine. Just top and tail the figs and quarter them. When the cooking is done, after about 20 minutes, use a potato masher to give the compite the right consistency.
Ingredients:
2 apples
650 g fresh figs
1 lemon, juiced
100 ml pear juice
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground ginger
