Step 1

First, make sure that the nuts are peeled. See the notes for peeling nuts if you can't find pre peeled nuts.

Step 2

When the nuts are peeled, rinse both types of raisins, cherries, and apricots well with cold water.

Step 3

Combine the dried fruits with the peeled nuts in a large bowl. Add the rose water or vanilla and filtered water and stir to combine.

Step 4

Cover the mixture and let it sit in the fridge for 3 days, stirring about once a day.

Step 5

The fruit should soak up most of the water and be quite sweet like a syrup. Serve the dish as is with the liquid. Enjoy.
