Instructions
- Peel peaches: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Score the bottom of each peach with an X. Place peaches in the boiling water and blanch for about 30 seconds. Drain and place in an ice bath or very cold water for about 1 minute. You should be able to remove the skin very easily now; it will start releasing where you scored the X, so start peeling it off there.
- Slice the peaches. Place them in a saucepan and add the sugar, lemon juice, water, cinnamon stick, vanilla, and salt. Combine very gently.
- Simmer: Bring to a simmer on medium-low heat and cook gently for about 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally and carefully. The liquid should reduce slightly, and the peaches should be soft but not mushy, they should still hold their shape.
- Consistency: If you prefer a less chunky compote, cook the peaches for about 10 minutes until they start to break down. Mash them lightly with the back of a spoon if you wish. Adjust the taste with more lemon juice, if necessary.
Notes
- Substitute peaches with nectarines.
- Storage: Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 1 week or freeze it for up to 3 months.
