Simple Strawberry-Rhubarb Compote

Simple Strawberry-Rhubarb Compote blends tender rhubarb with a hint of strawberry brightness for a sweet-tart sauce that’s silky and spoonable. It’s lovely over yogurt, pancakes, or ice cream, and makes a versatile topping for brunch or a light dessert. The strawberry gelatin brings a nostalgic fruitiness and a smooth, jammy finish.
