"Wash the blackcurrants thoroughly. Cut them in half lengthwise and remove the seeds. Simmer over low heat for 10 minutes, then turn off the heat and let it rest, repeating the process several times until the blackcurrants become tender and develop a prune-like appearance. If desired, you can add a dash of vanilla or cloves."
"Note: Blackcurrants not only make a great compote but also can be prepared to dry in the sun as 'passa'. In this case, simmer the mixture then strain it through a fine-mesh sieve and let it air-dry."
