Prune Applications

Culinary

Prunes can be mixed into a range of recipes. Soak them in red wine vinegar and whisk them with olive oil for a quick sauce to drizzle over roast chicken or pork or to use with roasted vegetables such as cauliflower, carrots, or parsnips.

More Culinary Applications

Bakery / Bars

Using prunes in baked goods imparts a roasted, caramelized flavor.  When baked, the dried fruit will crisp up around the edges. Mixing dried plums with raisins, dried cherries, dried cranberries, and/or dried apples also makes dynamic snacks.
