    Brandied Dried Apricot Jam


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    1 cup firmly packed, dried apricots, cut into small pieces
    1 1/2 cups water
    1/4 cup apricot or peach brandy
    1/4 cup dry white wine
    1 cup sugar
    1 cinnamon stick

    Recipe



    Put the apricot pieces in a mixing bowl, bring the water to a boil, and pour over the apricots. Add the brandy and wine, cover with plastic wrap, and leave in the refrigerator to soak for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour or for as long as overnight.

    Transfer the apricots and their soaking liquid to a nonreactive saucepan. Add the sugar and the cinnamon stick and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the mixture has a thick, jamlike consistency, about 45 minutes to an hour. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.

    Transfer the mixture to a bowl or storage container, remove and discard the cinnamon stick, cover, and refrigerate.

    Makes 1 1/2 cups
