Known as pipa in Chinese cuisine, loquat is peeled and gently poached with honey and lemon into a refreshing dessert. Made with few ingredients, this compote also travels well in a lunchbox.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the fruit

10 min

Peel and pit the loquats, then toss them with lemon juice to keep them from browning.

2

Poach the fruit

10 min

Bring the water to the boil in a pot, dissolve the honey in it, then add the loquats and poach over low heat for 10 minutes.

3

Cool and serve

20 min

Remove from the heat and let it cool to room temperature for 20 minutes, then serve chilled from the fridge.

Reminder

If you overcook the loquats they turn mushy; do not simmer for more than 10 minutes once boiling starts.

Kaynamaya başladıktan sonra 10 dakika değil 20 dakika kaynattım, yenidünyalar tamamen dağıldı ve komposto bulamaç gibi oldu, tadı fena değildi ama tabakta hiç iştah açıcı durmadı, bir daha kesinlikle süreye uyacağım.
