Make the syrup

Hwachae is a Korean dessert made by combining chopped seasonal fruit with a sweet, lightly tart syrup and chilling it with ice. Since it can be prepared in a lidded jar and kept cold, it travels well in a lunchbox to be eaten with a spoon at school or work. The refreshing syrup balanced against the fruit's own sweetness makes it a satisfying yet light treat.

Cut the pear and apple into cubes and pit the cherries, then place all the fruit into a lidded jar.
Pour the chilled syrup over the fruit, add the ice cubes and seal the jar.
Serve the jar with a spoon, or pack it in a lunchbox alongside an ice pack to keep it cold.
Add the fruit to the syrup just before serving; left too long, it releases its juices and waters the syrup down.
Adding a few cucumber slices to the syrup makes the dessert taste fresher and less sweet; cut the cucumber into thin half-moons before adding.
Admin DadaGastro · verified in test kitchenŞerbeti 8 dakika yerine 12 dakika kaynattım çünkü daha koyu bir tat istedim, soğuyunca kıvamı da biraz daha yoğunlaştı ve meyvelerle harika uyum sağladı, bir dahaki sefere aynı süreyi kullanacağım.
