RHUBARB COMPOTE

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine rhubarb with sugar over low heat. When the rhubarb starts to soften, but before it falls apart, about 5 minutes, use a slotted spoon to transfer it to a bowl.
• Cook down the remaining liquid in the pan until it thickens and turns syrupy, about 5 minutes longer. (This condenses and intensifies the rhubarb flavor.) Add the syrup to the bowl with the rhubarb and let cool. Compote will keep for at least a week in the fridge.

RHUBARB COMPOTE

Steps:

• Prepare rhubarb Wash rhubarb well and dry thoroughly with paper towels (wipe each stalk to remove any grit). Cut crosswise on the diagonal into 1-inch pieces (you should have about 5 cups).
• Make poaching syrup Bring sugar, water, zests, and salt to a boil in a large straight-sided skillet, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Add rhubarb, and stir to coat in sugar syrup. (There won't be enough syrup to cover, but the compote will become more liquidy once the fruit starts to release its juices.) Cover and cook over medium-low heat until rhubarb is just tender, about 5 minutes. (Do not overcook; you want most of the rhubarb pieces to hold their shape.)
• Cool Remove from heat and let cool completely, about 1 hour, before using. Compote can be refrigerated in an airtight container up to 1 week.
