A rich summer treat with stone fruits

By itself, this compote makes a refreshing summer dessert (or breakfast fruit, for that matter), but you can also use these plums in a kuchen or a free-form tart with a yeasted crust. Pour off the juice, reduce it until it’s really syrupy, and then spoon it over the cooked fruit. Cardamom is another wonderful spice to add, and so are orange and clove. A Thai basil leaf wouldn’t be out of place, either.
