Dried Fruit and Fresh Grapefruit Compote Recipe

Dried Fruit and Fresh Grapefruit Compote Recipe

  • 3 cups cranberry, cranberry-apple or cranberry-raspberry juice
  • 4 ounces dried apricots
  • 4 ounces dried pears
  • 4 ounces dried peaches
  • 6 tablespoons honey
  • 6 whole allspice berries
  • 2 grapefruit
  1. Combine first 6 ingredients in heavy medium saucepan. Simmer until fruit is tender, about 10 minutes. Transfer fruit to medium bowl using slotted spoon. Boil poaching liquid until syrupy, about 5 minutes. Pour syrup over fruit. Refrigerate until well chilled.
  2. Cut all peel and white pith from grapefruit. Working over bowl to catch juices, cut between membranes to remove sections. Add grapefruit to bowl. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover poached fruit and grapefruit separately and chill.) Drain grapefruit sections, reserving juice, and add to poached fruit. Thin syrup with grapefruit if desired and serve.
