WINTER FRUIT COMPOTE
Season: winter. It may seem somewhat unnecessary to preserve dried fruit, but I love having a few jars of this compote on the shelf. The once-shriveled fruits become plump and luscious and are quite delicious served alone for breakfast or with yogurt or crème fraîche as a dessert. I like to make this in early November, when newly dried prunes, figs, and apricots are available. Keep on the lookout for small, dried wild figs, which will plump up perfectly to their original shapely selves. The glistening black prunes from the Agen area in southern France are also key players-I prefer to use these un pitted because they infuse the compote with an almondlike essence. A simplified version of the oven method is used-everything is cooked and hot to start with, so the jars don't need to be heated for an extended time in the oven.

Steps:
- Combine the dried fruit in a large bowl. Pour the hot tea and the orange juice over it and mix together, making sure all the fruit is totally immersed. Cover and let steep for 24 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 275°F and place your sterilized jars (see p. 152) inside.
- Carefully transfer the fruit and liquid into a large pan. Bring slowly to a simmer on the stovetop and poach the fruit for 10 minutes.
- Remove the pan of fruit from the heat. Using a slotted spoon, scoop out the fruit and pack into the hot jars. Return the jars to the oven to keep warm. Add the honey to the steeping juice. Bring to a boil and boil for 5 minutes.
- Carefully remove the jars from the oven and pour in the honeyed juice so it comes to the very brim of the jars and completely covers the fruit. Seal immediately with lids, clips, or screw-bands. Leave undisturbed for 24 hours, then check that the seal is secure (see p. 158). Store in a cool, dry place and use within 1 year.

Steps:
- In a 4-quart saucepan or pot bring the first 6 ingredients to a simmer. Stir slowly to dissolve the sugar in the liquid. Add the remaining ingredients except the lemon juice and the cheese. When the liquid comes to a boil, adjust the heat and simmer for about 20 minutes to marry the flavors and soften the fruit. Turn off the heat then stir in the lemon juice. With a slotted spoon remove the fruit to a bowl. Bring the remaining syrup to a simmer and reduce until lightly thickened or when the bubbles formed on the top become small. Remove the syrup for the heat and when it is cool pour it over the fruit. The compote can be held in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Serve the compote at room temperature with the cheese.

- In the Crock-Pot (I used the old version of this Crock-pot), stir together the water and the sugar with a wooden spoon.
- Let the mixture cook for about 4 hours or until you are ready to serve it (my Crock-Pot switches to a “warm” setting when time is up so you could even set it overnight for a warm breakfast).

- Put the pears in a pan large enough to fit them snugly in 1 layer and cover with water. Add the vanilla pod and seeds, honey, cinnamon, cloves, fruit zest and lemon juice.
- Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 10-12 minutes until the pears are just cooked. Pour half the syrup into a bowl and add the dried fruit and cordial. Leave the pears in the remaining syrup and allow all the fruit to steep overnight. (If all the fruit is left together to steep, the dried fruit will absorb too much syrup.)
- Halve the pears, combine all the fruit with all the syrup in a large bowl and serve with Greek yogurt.
