I recently discovered the wonderful world of soaking dried fruit. I can't believe I didn't think of it before. And its so easy. Now I just need to come up with some recipe ideas for them. So far I've done it twice: Sake-Soaked Cherries and Rum-Soaked Cranberries. Basically, I take a sterilized jar (I used old jars from various foods, and then boil them in water to remove the label, and then run them through the dishwasher a couple times to clean them), fill the jar with whatever dried fruit I have on hand, and pour in the alcohol. The best part is, the longer they sit, the more they soak up, and as long as they are submerged in the alcohol, the fruit won't spoil. So many options....
