Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 2h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup dried cranberries
2 sprigs rosemary
1 cinnamon stick
2 navel oranges
1 cup seedless red grapes, halved
1 cup seedless green grapes, halved
1 cup pomegranate seeds
2 ripe pears, preferably Bartlett or Comice, cored and cut into bite-size pieces
2 sweet, crisp apples, such as Honeycrisp or Pink Lady, cored and cut into bite-size pieces

Steps:

  • Add the sugar, dried cranberries, rosemary, cinnamon stick and 1/2 cup water to a small pot. Using a vegetable peeler, peel 1 large strip of zest from one of the oranges and add to the pot. Set over medium heat, bring to a simmer and cook, stirring to dissolve the sugar and pressing the solids down into the mixture, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and cool the syrup to room temperature.
  • Discard the rosemary, cinnamon and orange zest. Strain the syrup through a sieve into a small bowl; set aside. Add the cranberries to a large bowl.
  • Remove the remaining zest from the oranges using a paring knife, following the shape of the fruit. Carefully cut between the sections to release whole segments and add to the bowl with the cranberries. Add the red and green grapes, pomegranate seeds, pears and apples to the bowl and toss together.
  • Pour half the reserved syrup over top of the fruit and toss to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate, tossing occasionally, for at le1 hour and up to 4 to let the fruit marinate in the syrup. Before serving, taste and add additional syrup as desired.

Grandma's 5 Cup Creamy Fruit Salad Recipe image

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (11 ounce) can mandarin oranges (drain well)
1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple (drain well)
2 cups miniature marshmallows
1 cup sweetened flaked coconut
1 cup sour cream

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the oranges, pineapple, marshmallows, coconut, and sour cream.
  • Stir until completely mixed together.
  • You can eat it immediately after mixing, but we recommend that you refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours before serving so that the sour cream can be sweetened by the fruit.
  • Try these other variations: add in chopped walnuts or pecans for an added crunch; to make it sweeter, stir in a little powdered sugar - it will also offset the tartness from the sour cream; add in a small jar of maraschino cherries; add in a can of drained fruit cocktail; add in dried cranberries and a dash of cinnamon; stir in 2 Tablespoons of instant lemon pudding powder for a lemon-taste; use pina colada flavored yogurt in place of the sour cream; top with corn flakes for an added crunch; add diced apples (if you don't like coconut, apples are a great alternative because of the crunch); add grapes (red or green) that have been halved; add diced bananas; add some marshmallow creme in with the sour cream to sweeten it up.

Tips:

  • Choose seasonal fruits. This will ensure that your fruit salad is fresh and flavorful.
  • Use a variety of colors and textures. This will make your fruit salad more visually appealing and interesting to eat.
  • Don't overdress the salad. A light dressing will help to enhance the natural flavors of the fruit.
  • Make sure the fruit is cold before serving. This will help to keep the salad refreshing and prevent the fruit from browning.
  • Garnish the salad with fresh herbs or nuts. This will add extra flavor and texture.

Conclusion:

Five-spice fall fruit salad is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy the flavors of the season. With its variety of fruits, flavors, and textures, this salad is sure to please everyone at your table.
