Peach and Rosemary Compote
I received this recipe that I needed to try but because I just renovated my kitchen, I could not find my kitchen scale, so I converted the measurements. It still turned out great and I think the recipe is very forgiving. The rosemary adds a nice savory element to the dish. This would be great…
