When growing up, my mom loved to serve us homemade berry compote as a part of our daily vitamin C intake. We didn’t have sugar-loaded cereals for breakfast; on the menu was oat porridge with berry compote and cultured yoghurt. My favourite was the blackcurrant compote and so here is my version.
Of all berries I love blackcurrants the most. They grow very easily in northern Europe and every year while I was growing up, I would pick them from late August until the beginning of September.
