When is National Fruit Compote Day?

Each year on March 1st, National Fruit Compote Day, a celebration of sweet berries, citrus, and stone fruit delights the senses.

Compote is French for "mixture."

A compote is a dessert that first appeared in 17th-century France. The French believed that fruit cooked in sugar syrup balanced the humidity's effects on the body and inspired them to invent compotes. Whole or pieces of mixed fruit are mixed in sugar syrup, according to recipes. The whole fruits are cooked in water with added sugar and spices. Add complementary spices to the dish, depending on the variety of fruit you choose.
