Notes
- Use ripe fruit: It needs to be ripe but not overly ripe, so it has the best flavor while maintaining its shape.
- To speed up prep: You can purchase several ‘prepared’ versions of fruits, like pomegranate arils and chopped apples/pears. Then, use a mandoline or food chopper to speed up the remaining prep.
- For softer cranberries/raisins: Soak them in warm apple, pineapple, or orange juice for 20-30 minutes before using them.
