Pretty Rose Colored Peach Compote
- 4 Peaches
- 200 grams Granulated sugar
- 1000 ml Water
- 1 lemon worth Lemon juice
- Place each peach under running water, and gently stroke the skin, rinsing the fuzz clean.
- Following the natural curve of the peach, use a kitchen knife to cut the peaches in half.
- Once cut in half, remove the pit.
- Put the water, sugar, lemon juice, and the halved peaches into a pan.
- Cook over medium heat.
- When the pan starts to bubble, turn the peaches over.
- When the peaches start to fade in color, take them with a ladle and peel off the skin.
- Return the peaches and the skins to the pan, and simmer for about 10 minutes over low heat.
- When the peaches become soft, turn off the heat, let them cool, and they are done!
- If you want to preserve the peaches, pack them while still hot into sterilized jars with the syrup.
- Fill the jars up to the rim just before the point where the syrup is overflowing, and close the lids lightl.
- Put the jars in a pot filled with enough hot water to come halfway up the sides of the jars.
- Bring the water to a boil to sterilize the jars thoroughly.
- Life the jars out of the pot and quickly close the lids tightly.
- You can fit about 2-3 peach halves in a 600 ml capacity jar.
- I filled 3 jars here.

- This peach compote is lovely made with yellow peaches too, not just white peaches as I used in this recipe.
