From The Best of International Cooking cookbook. Even though the title says that this is a salad, it is actually a dessert. If you prefer a less sweet dessert, add the juice of one lemon. I haven't made this recipe, but I love dried fruit and nuts and this sounds delicious. Note: prep time does NOT include refrigeration time, so be sure to allow extra time for required refrigeration. Ingredients:
3 ounces dried apricots |
3 ounces pitted prunes |
3 ounces dried figs |
3 ounces dried pears, rings or 3 ounces apple rings |
3 tablespoons raisins |
cold water, enough to cover fruit |
2 tablespoons whole blanched almonds |
2 tablespoons pistachio nuts |
2 tablespoons pine nuts |
1 pinch ground cardamom |
1 pinch ground cinnamon |
1/4 cup grenadine |
1/4 cup rose water |
ice cube (small) |
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, cover dried fruits with cold water. Cover and refrigerate 24 hours; drain well.
2. In a large bowl, combine drained fruit and nuts.
3. In a small bowl, combine cardamom, cinnamon, grenadine and rose water; pour over fruit and nuts. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours.
4. To serve, stir in ice cubes.
