Red Wine Wax Gourd Compote 冬瓜の赤ワインコンポート

英語の後に日本語が続きます。

I love wax gourds, but always wondered if there were any dessert recipes using the gourd and I found one yesterday! Red wine wax gourd compote! It's easy to cook as usual.

• Put sliced wax gourd (a half of a small one) and water into a pan and bring to the boil.
• When the water is heated, add sugar (50g; increase if you want to make it sweeter).
• When the gourd becomes translucent, add red wine (60cc) and a spoonful of lemon juice.
• When it's cooled, put it in the fridge.    

While I was eating the compote, which was very good, an idea came to my mind💡! I mixed the syrup made in the process of making the compote with soda (2nd photo). The compote and the syrup with soda are both beautiful and tasted good!!

冬瓜大好きなのですが、いつも煮物ばかりで悩んでいました。で、見つけたのがデザートレシピ。赤ワインコンポートです！しかもコンポートを作るときにできたシロップのソーダ割り（2枚目）も美味。作り方は簡単。砂糖と一緒に茹でて、半透明になったら赤ワインとレモン汁を加えるだけ。冷蔵庫で冷やして召し上がれ😋
