What goes with Prune?
A prune is a dried plum whose concentrated sugars, fruit acids and softened cell structure give it a dense, yielding chew. The reference is an unsweetened, pitted soft prune. Moisture varies considerably between packs, so the same weight can behave as either a firm chopped inclusion or a readily blended paste after a small addition of liquid.

Pairing principles
What pairs well with Prune?
Prunes work with rich meats because their fruit acidity and sweetness broaden the finish of browned fat. Nuts add a dry, brittle contrast to the soft flesh, while bitter chocolate prevents a dessert from tasting solely sugary. Use a measured proportion in savoury cooking: a distributed ribbon of fruit is usually more balanced than a heavy sweet coating.
