Roasted Rhubarb-and-Sour-Cherry Compote image

This intensely sweet-tart condiment is as versatile as it is vivacious. Sour cherries pack a punch, and keep their color when roasted with rhubarb and a splash of orange juice. Use it as a topper on a bowl of morning yogurt, as a sweet-tart mixer to your evening cocktail, and everything in between.

Time 45m

Yield Makes about 2 Cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

12 ounces rhubarb, cut into 3-inch lengths (halved if thick)
8 ounces fresh or frozen sour cherries (about 2 cups), defrosted if frozen, pitted or left on stems if desired
3 strips orange zest (each about 3 inches long and 1/2 inch wide), plus 2 tablespoons fresh juice
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons distilled white vinegar
2 cardamom pods, crushed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Toss rhubarb and cherries with orange zest and juice, sugar, salt, vinegar, and cardamom. Spread mixture in a single layer in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish or a 9-by-12 1/2-inch rimmed baking sheet (quarter sheet pan). Roast until softened and juicy, about 20 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes.

I found this compote to be too sweet. I think it would be better with less sugar.

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this compote. I'm not usually a fan of rhubarb, but the roasting process really mellows out the tartness. The sour cherries add a nice touch of sweetness and acidity.

This compote is amazing! The tartness of the rhubarb and cherries is perfectly balanced by the sweetness of the sugar. Adding the vanilla bean really enhances the flavor. It was a hit at my brunch party, and I will definitely be making it again.
