RUMTOPF (TRADITIONAL GERMAN FRUIT PRESERVE & BEVERAGE)

Steps:

• The traditional way of making a Rumtopf started with the first ripe fruit available and ended in autumn (November) with last fresh fruit (often pears). The general rule for making is: for 2 parts fruit you need 1 part sugar and approximately 3 cups Rum.
• Wash fruit, pat dry and cut into bite sized pieces, if necessary. Measure them.
• Add half of weight sugar, mix and let stand for about 1 hour. Fill fruit into your Rumtopf and add as much Rum, so that fruit are completely (fingerbreadth) covered.
• Close Rumtopf and set aside in a cool place.
• Repeat these steps with other fruit "until" your Rumtopf is completely filled or fresh fruit season is over.
• Take care of your Rumtopf. Fill up with Rum if necessary. It is important that fruit are always completely covered.
• After you have added the last "layer" fruit, sugar and Rum let stand for about 6 weeks. Enjoy.
• NOTE: 1-step preparation. Use any kind of fruit you like. Use a good mixture of different fresh and ripe fruits. Prepare them as describe above. After you have put them into the Rumtopf cover them with Rum. The Rumtopf should be completely filled. Let stand for 6 weeks. Enjoy.
• NOTE: let stand at least for 6 weeks or even more. And keep the Rumtopf always in a cool place.
• NOTE on fruit: you can use almost any fruit, but use a mixture of different ones like stone fruit (plums, peaches, nectarines, cherries), berries (strawberries, gooseberries, cranberries, grape wine, and others), you can use figs, apples, pears. Just keep in mind that the fruit will be in the Rum for a long time, so the fruit should be firm enough.
• Number of servings can not be given. Time to make includes time until first use.

ENGLISH STICKY TOFFEE SAUCE

Steps:

• Place the heavy cream, brown sugar, salt and butter in a medium sauce pan over medium heat and let the brown sugar dissolve completely, stirring as little as possible to avoid the sugar granules from splashing up the sides of the pan (this will result in a grainy toffee sauce). Once it's dissolved increase the temperature to medium high. Avoid stirring too much during the initial stages until the sauce begins to turn color. Increase the frequency of stirring as the sauce gets browner to prevent burning. Continue until the sauce is thickened and a dark amber. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.If the sauce thickens too much or if leftovers are too thick, add a little extra butter and/or heavy cream and reheat.
• Makes about 1 3/4 cups. Store in the refrigerator for up to a month.

BUTTERSCOTCH SAUCE, OR TOFFEE SAUCE

Steps:

• Put the ingredients in a small pan, and heat until melted (stirring constantly), then bring to the boil.
• Simmer for between one and two minutes (or for a minute or two longer if you want an exciting toffee effect).
• Serve immediately, poured over ice cream and sliced bananas.
• Washing up: As soon as the pan is empty, soak it in very hot water for a while. Even if you have chosen the toffee approach, the sugar should dissolve, making clean-up easy.
