Cherry compote

Please yourself with the rich taste and color of cherry compote. Very tasty compote with a stunning dark ruby color! Once again, the mother-in-law came to visit her beloved son and grandson, well, and teach her daughter-in-law to be smart and brought half a bucket of cherry with her. Only I managed to mentally ask myself: "And why do I need it?", as my mother-in-law, apparently reading my thoughts, replied: "We will cook compote." Well, if we will, then we will. I was quite skeptical about this idea until I tasted the cherry compote. And that's when I realized that at last our tastes converge in some way) So, let's start cooking.

In fact, cherry compote is cooked quickly and is not difficult at all. As usual, we start by thoroughly washing the berries. By the way, it is better to take fresh, juicy berries for this compote, then not only the taste, but also the color of your compote will turn out rich, dark ruby.
Next, the washed berries are blanched in boiling water for 2-3 minutes, and then immediately transferred to an enameled saucepan. Bring the water to a boil, dissolve the sugar in it and pour the berries with this hot syrup. That's it, you can forget about the berries for 5-7 hours. After the berries are infused in syrup, we transfer them to sterilized jars. I usually use a slotted spoon for this, so that all the syrup remains in the pan. Bring the syrup to a boil and pour the berries in jars with it. We roll up the lids, turn upside down and leave them wrapped up for a day.
