"What do you do when you have more oranges at home than you can quickly eat? A perfect way to sustainably utilize them is by cooking them into compote and preserving them in jars. This extends the shelf life of the fruits. The aroma of orange compote immediately makes you want to taste it. With cheap fruits, you can save money and properly utilize the contents with great flavor. In this recipe, the segmented oranges are cooked in a honey syrup, filled into jars, and sterilized in a water bath. When stored cool and dry, they can last for up to a year."
