Prunes In A Pitcher Recipes
PRUNES IN A PITCHER
Gail Monaghan's 2007 book "Lost Desserts" delved into the histories of some delectable dishes. This one goes back to the 1800s. Prunes in a pitcher, or pruneaux au pichet, were made by Fernand Point for the Aga Khan III and served to him in a rare Persian vase that Khan had given the legendary French chef. (However, the fact that the prunes are soaked for two days in port and Bordeaux doesn't quite track with the Islamic part, Monaghan points out.)

Steps:
- At least 2 days before serving, place the prunes and port in a glass or ceramic container. Cover and let soak at room temperature for at least 24 hours or longer if possible.
- Place the prunes and their soaking liquid in a non-reactive saucepan. Add red wine, sugar, vanilla bean and seeds and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, and then simmer until the prunes are soft and a few start to fall apart, about 15 minutes. Let cool. Refrigerate covered for at least 24 hours or up to 2 months.
- To serve, place a few prunes in individual cups and cover with a little heavy cream or vanilla ice cream. Serve immediately.

PRUNES POACHED IN RED WINE
I know what you're thinking: stewed prunes? But this is not that. This is prunes poached in wine, a classic French dessert that you still see on dessert trolleys in bistros all over Paris. Some recipes for it have you soak the prunes in water for up to 12 hours to plump them before poaching, others have you soak them in black tea. Here you let them steep for only five minutes in just-boiled water, which means you don't lose the essence of the prunes to the liquid. Then you poach them in sweetened wine spiced up with a cinnamon stick and vanilla bean, and let them steep again for two hours. The prunes retain their intense flavor, and the wine is both spicy and just sweet enough. Serve the prunes cold or warm; you can also keep them in wine in the refrigerator for a week or two, dipping into them to spoon over ice cream or into yogurt, or just enjoying them on their own.

Steps:
- Place prunes in a bowl and cover with boiling water. Let sit for 5 minutes, then drain.
- Meanwhile, combine wine and honey in a medium saucepan. Using the tip of a paring knife, scrape seeds from the vanilla bean halves into wine and add pods. Add cinnamon stick and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 5 minutes.
- Add prunes to wine and bring back to a simmer. Cover and simmer 10 minutes. Remove from heat and add zest. Remove cinnamon stick.
- Cover and let sit for at least 2 hours before serving. Serve warm, room temperature or chilled. Prunes will keep for 1 to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
