Cooking process

At the height of the fruit summer-autumn season, compote of apples and plums for the winter is not prepared only by a lazy housewife. These fruits are so popular in every city that it seems as if everyone has a plum or apple tree in the yard of the house. Probably, that’s why we are so used to the taste of this drink and we consider it to be our own.

Cork for the winter apple-plum compote is very easy: for 1 liter capacity will require only 1 large apple or 2 medium and 3-4 plum varieties “Hungarian”, sugar and a small pinch of citric acid to emphasize the fruit taste.

Apples choose sweet and sour varieties, without contaminants and darkening. At will, when cooking compote, you can add a pair of mint stems, and after removing – it will give the drink a refreshing note.

Ingredients for compote of apples and plums for the winter

We cut the apples in half, remove the seed blocks from them and wash them in water. Then we slice the lobules into a container. Plums also rinse. If you want, you can remove the bones from them, but I roll the compote with whole plums. The main thing is to remember that canned apple-plum compote with stones is stored for about 1 year, and without them – 1,5-2 years.

Tanks with harvested harvested fruit from apples and plums allow to cool down, and then transferred to storage in a closet, pantry, etc., opening when you want to drink it, and without waiting for the winter cold.
