Compotes

 
Orange Compote
Ingredients:

2 tablespoons thinly sliced blood or navel orange zest (from 1/2 orange)
2 to 3 blood or navel oranges (peel and pith removed), quartered lengthwise, thinly sliced, and seeded (2 cups)
1/3 cup sugar
Coarse salt
Cooking Instructions:
In a medium saucepan, combine orange zest and slices, sugar, salt and 2 tablespoons water; bring to a boil over high. Reduce heat to medium, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until oranges collapse and liquid is syrupy, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool compote to room temperature. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator, up to 2 weeks.
Compote of Oranges
Ingredients:

6 Oranges
600 ml (1 pint) Sugar Syrup, with Orange Rind added
Cooking Instructions:
Peel the oranges, remove as much of the white pith as possible and divide them into small pieces without breaking the thin skin with which they are surrounded. Make the syrup, adding the rind of the orange cut into thin narrow strips. When the syrup has been well skimmed and is quite clear, add the pieces of orange and simmer for 5 minutes. Take them out carefully with a spoon without breaking and arrange on a glass dish. Reduce the syrup by boiling it quickly until thick. Let it cool a little, pour it over the oranges and when cold, they will be ready for serving.
Bitter Orange Compote
Ingredients:

4 large oranges
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 small sweet onion, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons honey
Cooking Instructions:
Using a citrus zester, zest one of the oranges. Using a sharp knife, finely julienne the zest. Using a serrated knife, peel all the oranges, removing all of the bitter white pith. Working over a bowl, cut in between the membranes to release the sections into the bowl. Squeeze the membranes to extract as much juice as possible; you should have about 1 cup. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter. Add the onion and cook over moderately high heat, stirring, until softened and lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Add the honey and cook until lightly caramelized, about 3 minutes. Add the orange zest, sections and juice and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the liquid is reduced to a syrup and the sections have nearly broken down, about 30 minutes.
