  • Dried Fruit Compote

    Hoşaf made with dried fruits are a perfect accompaniment for pilaf. There are also hoşafs made with dried apricots, prunes, or raisins separately, but when all of them are mixed, this creates an autumn array. The combination of the sweet and sour flavors of dried fruits make the hoşaf juice even more delicious. Using sour and sweet fruits together creates a sweet balance in the hoşaf without using any sugar, so you can make a healthy, sugar-free compote which is very rich in terms of fruit fibers.
