INGREDIENTS
Finely grated peel and juice of 1 lemon
Finely grated peel and juice of 1 lime
8
cups diced assorted seasonal fruits*
1
cup sweet spumante wine or freshly squeezed orange juice
1/4
cup sugar
1/4
cup coarsely chopped walnuts or almonds, toasted (optional)
*Apples, pears and bananas are essential fruits in a traditional Macédoine. Add as many seasonally ripe fruits to them as you can–variety is the key. As you select fruits, try to achieve a diversity of textures, being sure to avoid mushy, overripe fruit.
PREPARATION:
- Combine lemon juice and lime juice; place in large bowl. Place assorted fruits in bowl with citrus juice mixture; toss to coat.
- Combine wine, sugar and citrus peels in small bowl, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Pour over fruit mixture; toss gently. Cover; refrigerate 1 hour.
- Sprinkle walnuts on fruit mixture just before serving, if desired.
