STORAGE:
Allow to fully cool down before storing in fridge. Can save and use berry compote up to a week.
For longer storage option, you can use an ice mold to freeze the compote and reheat when you want to use again.
You can use frozen berries as well but cooking time will vary.
Use a variation of different berries or a just one type of berry for your compote if you'd like.
