Poached dried fruit

Last night we pulled out a cookbook we've had for years (decades, perhaps) and found a brunch menu that included a recipe for poaching dried fruit.  We had several on hand and picked up a couple of other items at the store.  The fruit is covered in boiling water and then soaked overnight.  This morning we simmered the fruit in the soaking liquid and here you see the steam rising from the pot.  It can be served warm or cold.  It was naturally sweet and so not overpowering.  A nice start to the day...
