Directions:
- Combine apricots and water in a bowl, cover, and let stand overnight, or until soft and well plumped (about 12 hours).
- Combine apricots and their soaking water in saucepan with the orange peel and juice and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Add the sugar and bring to boil, while stirring.
- Boil gently, stirring often, until the mixture is thick and shiny and begins to clear the sides of the pan when stirred.
- While mixture thickens, be sure to stir it continually but gently, so that the fruit does not burn or get squashed (about 30 minutes, but may vary).
- DO NOT ALLOW THE MIXTURE TO COOK DOWN TO A PUREE; it should retain good-sized bits of apricot.
- Remove the preserve from heat and stir in almond extract and brandy.
- Ladle into 3 half-pint canning jars, prepared in usual manner and seal with sterilized 2 piece screw-on lids.
- Cool and let mellow several weeks or more before serving.
