A broken apart fluffy pancake from Austria served with Marillenröster - something between a Compost and Marmalade made from apricots

Haha they definitely meant compote but here's an interesting fact. Compote comes from French compote which I thought had an accent on the o but apparently doesn't. When French has an accent over a vowel it typically indicates that an s has been dropped from old French, which would have made sense because the og French word was actually composte.

As a French speaker I had never heard of this, but I looked it up and it's indeed the case specifically for circumflex accents (ê, ô, â, î) and not the others.

A neat resource (in French naturally) that I found on this:

At the start of the word it's an acute accent. Like in école or état.
