VelvetineNut asked me to post this-it's hardly a recipe and the quantities listed are estimates. The result is wonderful-plump juicy raisins that add incredible flavor to cakes, cookies, fudge, bread pudding, etc. And, there's a bonus-the resulting syrup is delicious. They keep forever and you can just keep adding raisins and/or liquor as needed. Prep time does not include the time you let the raisins soak. Ingredients:
2 cups raisins |
1 1/4 cups bourbon |
Directions:
1. Find a mason jar or other glass container with a tight-fitting lid.
2. Place the raisins in the jar.
3. Pour the bourbon (I use Maker's Mark)over the raisins-enough to cover them.
4. Give them a shake and close up the jar.
5. Let it sit in your cupboard for a few days (although after just a few hours the raisins will begin to plump), inverting the jar occasionally to make sure all the raisins are getting coated.
6. Voila!
7. For bourbon or dark rum, I suggest dark raisins.
8. For white rum, I suggest golden raisins.
