Apple compote made from fresh apples in a saucepan

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to cook compote from fresh apples? To prepare apple compote, prepare all the necessary ingredients. Use ripe apples, sweet and sour varieties. Choose dense fruits. If you take apples that are too soft, then when cooking they will boil too much. From red apples, the compote will be pink in color, and from light varieties it will be paler. The more apples there are, the more concentrated the finished compote will be.

2. Step 2:

   

   Wash the apples in running water from dirt, cut into slices, removing the core. Put the sliced apples in a saucepan in which you will cook the compote. For cooking, you can use dishes that do not oxidize, for example, enameled or non-stick. Aluminum won't do here.

3. Step 3:

   

   Pour the sliced apples with water and put the pan on the fire. Bring everything together to a boil.

4. Step 4:

   

   Add sugar to the boiling apples in a saucepan. Add the amount of sugar to your liking. Focus on the taste of the apples themselves. If the apples are sour, then you may have to add a little more sugar. Stir the compote until the sugar is completely dissolved.

6. Step 5:

   

   Boil the compote for 2-3 minutes and remove from heat. Cover the pan with a lid and leave to infuse until completely cooled.

7. Step 6:

   

   Strain the ready-made, infused compote through a fine sieve and pour into a decanter. In summer, it is best to cool the compote in the refrigerator before serving.
