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.

- 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.

BELGIAN RABBIT WITH PRUNES IN WINE SAUCE
Rabbit has long been underrated on our side of the ocean-not so in Europe where rabbit is almost as popular as chicken. Marinated and stewed in wine with prunes, this Belgian dish may be the answer to an affordable but special dinner. Very healthy meat and low in fat.

Steps:
- MARINADE: Combine all ingredients for marinade in large plastic bag. Place bag in shallow glass, stainless steel or plastic bowl.

PRUNES IN ORANGE SAUCE
This is a recipe received in email from www.whfoods.org - a great source of nutritional information. I'm keeping it as I have poached prunes, err ... I mean dried plums (have you noticed that re-branding as of late? LOL), for years with out ever writing down the recipe. It is nice to sometimes substitute Madeira for the OJ/lemon juice & adding the peel of an orange to the brew.

Steps:
- Combine orange and lemon juice, lemon zest, honey, and cinnamon in a medium sized saucepan. Bring to a simmer on high heat and add prunes.
- Turn the heat as low as possible and cover. Simmer gently for only about 10 minutes. Keep an eye on them so prunes don't get soggy. Add chopped walnuts and cook for another couple of minutes.
- Remove prunes with a slotted spoon and turn the heat to medium-high; reduce the liquid to about half. Pour the syrup over the prunes and chill or serve warm. If using cinnamon stick - leave it in the syrup with the prunes.
