I was looking for a recipe to use my salal berries I had been picking and found this one. This recipe takes hours to make. There are so many ingredients to chop and measure. And it takes a while to cook down the apple juice and the compote. I bought the crab already prepped from Costco and had picked, cleaned and frozen the salal. The only change was I used gluten free bread flour. Everything came out good. This would be nice for a fancy breakfast or brunch, but would make the reduction and compote the day before. However, it takes so much time and effort, I do not think I will make this recipe again.
