Chef's notes
The compote is perfect for topping desserts, breakfast foods, and more. Try it on pancakes, waffles, French toast, cake, ice cream, or yogurt.
If using frozen strawberries, let them thaw slightly before chopping.
For a smooth sauce, puree with an immersion blender.
Store in the fridge for up to a week or freeze for up to 3 months.
