Honey Rhubarb Compote Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the rhubarb, sugar, honey, butter and cinnamon in a large microwave-safe bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and pierce once or twice to allow steam to escape. Microwave until the rhubarb is tender, about 6 minutes. Carefully remove the plastic wrap and stir.
• Meanwhile, break the shredded wheat into smaller pieces in a bowl. Dust with confectioners' sugar and cinnamon.
• Spoon the rhubarb compote into bowls, top with ice cream and sprinkle with the shredded wheat.

Steps:

• Combine rhubarb, strawberries, water, orange juice, honey, star anise pod, and salt in a small pot and bring to a slow boil over medium heat. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 5 minutes.
• Remove the lid and simmer until fruit is soft, about 5 more minutes. Turn off heat and allow to cool completely. Remove star anise and place compote into jars. Use within a few days and keep refrigerated.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F/200°C/180°C fan/gas 6 and line a baking tray with baking parchment.
• Place the rhubarb in a saucepan with the sugar and orange juice. Simmer over a medium heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the rhubarb pieces have completely broken down and the mixture is thick and sticky. Spoon into a small jar or ramekin and leave to cool.
• To make the scones, place the flour in a large bowl and add the cubes of butter. Quickly rub the butter into the flour using your fingertips until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Stir in the sugar and make a well in the centre.
• Pour the honey into the centre of the well, then gradually add the milk, stirring it into the mixture using a round-ended knife. A soft, rough dough will form. Tip the dough out on to a lightly floured worktop and knead very briefly to smooth out the dough. Over-handling the dough will make your scones tough and flat, so knead as little as possible.
• Gently roll the dough out to a thickness of around 3cm (1 inch). Cut into rounds using a 6cm (2 1/3-inch) pastry cutter, cutting straight down and not twisting, as twisting prevents the scones from rising properly. Very gently re-roll the remaining dough, taking care not to handle it too much, and punch out more scones-you should get 9 in total. Arrange the scones on the lined baking tray and brush the tops with a little extra honey.
• Bake for 12-15 minutes or until risen and golden brown. Serve warm from the oven, split in half, with big dollops of clotted cream and rhubarb compote.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine rhubarb with sugar over low heat. When the rhubarb starts to soften, but before it falls apart, about 5 minutes, use a slotted spoon to transfer it to a bowl.
• Cook down the remaining liquid in the pan until it thickens and turns syrupy, about 5 minutes longer. (This condenses and intensifies the rhubarb flavor.) Add the syrup to the bowl with the rhubarb and let cool. Compote will keep for at least a week in the fridge.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F.
• Combine rhubarb, OJ, honey and sugar in a pie dish.
• Roast for 1 hour, until rhubarb collapses and OJ is reduced.
• Cool 15 minutes, then stir in vanilla and serve or store.
