In the kitchen, there is a distinction between apple compote and puree. While puree is a pulpy mass, all the apple pieces should be still recognizeable in a compote juice. Therefore, the apple compote is boiled and then let steep on low flame or with the remaining heat of the stove. The typical apple spices cinnamon stick, vanilla pod and clove are also used here.
instructions
Bringing water to a boil
Put the water with the spices and the sugar in a pot and bring it to a boil on the stove.
Cutting the apples
Wash, peel and halve the apples and remove the core. Cut the apples into equally thick slices. Drizzle the apple slices with lemon juice.
The lemon juice prevents the apples from reacting with oxygen and therefore getting a brown color.
Boiling the apples
Put the apples in the water and bring them to a boil. Reduce the temperature, cover the pot with a lid and let the compote steep for about ten minutes.
Stewed apples
Allow the apple compote to cool slightly before serving. You can also fill it in a glass and keep it in the fridge for a few days.
