------------------SEPHARDIC COOKING; MARK-----------------------

~Jewish, Turkish
1 lb Mixed dried fruit such as ~apricots, figs, pears, and
~raisins
3 c Water
2 tb Sugar
1 Lemon's juice

There are not many desserts served at Passover but a fruit compote,
especially with the very fine Turkish dried fruit, is especially
popular.
