Because of their water content, nectarines cook quickly, which helps when you’re in a hurry!

Hi Annette, the ginger syrup I use in South Africa is called Illovo ginger preserve in syrup. If it’s unavailable I place 3 Tbl boiling water into small saucepan,add 1 heaped Tablespoon finely grated ginger and 1 cup white sugar (in that order)and bring it to a slow boil over medium heat. Once sugar has dissolved allow it to boil over medium heat for about 5 -7 minutes until it starts to turn a very light caramel colour then remove from heat. You don’t want it as dark as you would for sugar glass as you still want a pourable syrup when cool. Hope this helps.
where do you get preserved ginger syrup and pomegranate molasses that you use in your recipes
Thank You. They’ve just started coming into our fruit shops in South Africa, so my family and friends had their fare share of this dessert over Sukkot!!
