Although the basic preparation below may not sound like much by way of quantity, it will transform a quart of mixed fruits into an unusual brunch opener or fragrant dessert. Or serve a small quantity of the fruit over ice cream or a pudding; the sweet syrup is as heady and aromatic as brandy or vanilla sauce.
Ingredients
½ pound 3 ½ cup ¼
Method
- Peel all dark green from fruits. Halve each lengthwise, then cut across in ½-inch slices.
- Bring water and sugar to a boil in small nonaluminum saucepan. Add fruit. Reduce heat to lowest point. Cover and poach (no bubbling in the syrup) until fruits have softened slightly—about 4 minutes.
- Gently pour into a dish and cool. Cover and chill.
