Peach Fans on Blackberry-Lime Sauce

Preparation

1. Step 1

   In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, heat the blackberry spread for 1 to 2 minutes, or until just melted, whisking constantly. Remove from the heat.

   Step 2

   Whisk in the lime juice and gingerroot. Transfer to a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 24 hours.

   Step 3

   Peel and slice the peaches. Halve the strawberries lengthwise. If you cut the stem in half, too, you’ll have a prettier presentation.

   Step 4

   Spoon 2 tablespoons blackberry mixture onto the center of a salad or dessert plate. Rotate the plate to spread the sauce to about a 6-inch circle. Alternating peaches and strawberries, arrange the fruit accordion-style on the sauce. Repeat for each serving.

   Step 5

   Replace the blackberry spread with seedless raspberry spread and omit the lime juice. Replace the peaches with 2 large pears, and replace the strawberries with 3 peeled green kiwifruit, each cut lengthwise into sixths.

3. Cook’s Tip

   Step 6

   You can slice peaches or pears up to 1 hour in advance. To prevent browning, stir in 1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons lime juice. (Even though there’s no lime juice in Pear Fans on Raspberry Sauce, you can treat the pears with some to keep them from turning brown.) Don’t stir. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate. Too much lime juice will cause the fruit to “cook” and become mushy. Arrange the fruit slices immediately before serving.
