Stewed Fruit

[unspeakablehorror]

I really like stewing apricots in a little water and sugar for a few minutes and then refrigerating them to chill them.  It's really simple and tasty.  Some fruits, like sand pears, taste sweet to me even without added sugar--I'm guessing those maybe have a higher sugar content than apricots.

I'll generally still eat fruit that's at its ideal ripeness fresh if it's unmarred, but I tend to prefer cooking overripe or scarred fruits before eating them.
