Storage Time

Up to 1 week in the refrigerator once opened; up to 12 months if properly canned and stored in a cool, dark pantry.

Temperature

Store refrigerated at 0–4°C (32–40°F) after opening. Unopened canned compote should be stored in a cool, dark, and dry pantry.

Freezing

Rhubarb compote freezes exceptionally well, preserving its delightful tartness and texture. Allow the compote to cool completely, then transfer it into airtight freezer-safe containers or heavy-duty freezer bags, leaving a small headspace for expansion. For best quality, consume within 8-12 months. To thaw, place the frozen compote in the refrigerator overnight or at room temperature for a few hours. Some slight separation may occur upon thawing, which can be easily stirred back in.
