I always associate them with hotel breakfast buffets - and I'm not keen on them for breakfast. But I use prunes in, say, casseroles, when it needs a bit of sweetness. And, for this Friday's dinner, they go in a marinade for chicken thighs - prunes, garlic, oregano, pepper, red wine vinegar, black olives, capers and bay leaves, They sit in the fridge for a few hours and then it all gets baked.

CntPAcruiser Posted August 24 #4 Share Posted August 24 I've had them in the past for breakfast when Royal offered them on the buffet, but I'm not sure they do any longer. They cut of lot of the peripheral, less popular food items as a cost savings measure. They used to have poached figs as well--they were delicious!

jlawrence01 Posted August 26 #5 Share Posted August 26 I had them in May 1992 on the Costa Riviera. They served canned and dried fruits at most meals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGTNORMANDIE Posted September 7 #6 Share Posted September 7 I make them at home…very simple. Place the prunes and 3-4 thin slices of lemon in a pan cover half way with water and bring to a boil. Place in a bowl and chill in refrigerator. They go great with your morning cereal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
