SUGARPLUMS
1/2 pound prunes, or dried plums
Superfine sugar
Place the prunes in a bowl and cover with boiling water. Allow to stand for
5 minutes, then drain and re-cover with fresh boiling water. Allow to stand
for a further 5 minutes, then drain.
Weigh the prunes and place in a saucepan with an equal quantity of superfine
sugar -- about 8 ounces. Barely cover with cold water and bring slowly to a
boil. Simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until the prunes are tender and
the syrup thickens. (It takes about 5 to 10 minutes.) Using the prongs of a
fork, drain the prunes one at a time from the hot syrup. Roll in superfine
sugar. Leave overnight in a warm place to dry, then store in an airtight
container.
