Hello guys. To your attention the pear and lemon compote. This is not a completely ordinary combination, it will allow the noble pear to play in a completely new way, and the lemon will sound very unusual for us here. But traditionally, we will talk about the recipe itself a little later, namely after the historical perspective. True, it is not a fact that history will tell us exactly who invented the pear compote and its recipe, but we will be able to find out about the compote in general.
The very name compote came to us around the 18th century from the French word compote. It was in France that compotes were first cooked. Moreover, compotes are still sold in French stores, although the contents of cans with such an inscription are ordinary fruit puree. In our latitudes, compote, and no matter what its main ingredient: pear, apple or lemon, is a sweet dessert drink based on fruits or berries. It is such a compote, friends, based on which we will cook a pear with lemon today, but in general such recipes for the winter are very diverse, so we will return to them more than once. For now, let's start.
Pear compote with lemon
Peel the pear from seeds and tails and cut into pieces
We will also cut the lemon into pieces, we need 4 of these, and peel each of them
Put about a third of pear slices into a sterile jar and put some slices of lemon to each too
Top up the jars with boiling water and leave the compote for 10 minutes
After 10 minutes, drain the water, boil and fill the jars again for 10 minutes, drain again, add sugar and bring to a boil again
As soon as the syrup boils, we pour it to the cans
We roll up the glass cans, turn them over on the lids, wrap them up until they cool down and put them in a warm place
As soon as the compote cools down, we lower it to the basement
Such a pear and lemon compote can also be seasoned with mint and you get something like lemonade, not simple, but healthy. This is an excellent substitute for any factory drinks, and even if it is sweet, it is very natural for that. What drinks do you prefer? What are you cooking for your family?
