Cooking method

  1. Step 1:

    Step 1

    Wash and sterilize the jars and lids. Wash and sort through the pears. Divide the fruit evenly among the jars. You can use fewer pears and more water.

    Step 2

    Step 3

    Pour the water from the jars into a pot.

    Step 4

    Add the sugar and bring the resulting syrup to a boil.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5

  6. Step 6:

    Step 6

    Add a teaspoon of citric acid to each jar.

  7. Step 7:

    Step 7

    Seal the lids. Wrap the jars up. The warmer they're wrapped, the longer our preserve cools and sterilizes itself.

  • Each three-liter jar takes 500 g of sugar and 1 tsp of citric acid. The amounts of pears and water are up to you — it depends on whether you prefer more pears or more compote. Enjoy!
