Compote of currants and rhubarb

Rhubarb and currants are a storehouse of vitamins in just one glass. I recently posted a recipe for classic compote with rhubarb here (https://bestrecipes24.com/cooking/36143-kompot-iz-revenya). However, rhubarb can be combined with many other berries. It was my husband’s idea to combine rhubarb with red currants. He really loves redcurrant compotes, but since I have a lot of stems that need to be sold quickly before they spoil, he said, “Well, just cook it like this, all together.” I cooked it. It turned out delicious. And useful.

  6. STEP 6

    STEP 6

    Pour the rhubarb and currants into the pan. Bring the compote to a boil and cook over medium heat for 1-2 minutes. There is no need to cook for a long time, as all the beneficial properties will disappear from the berries and rhubarb. Rhubarb boils quickly, and currants even faster. Therefore, it is better to then let the compote stand under the lid so that it brews well.
