Prunes stuffed with walnuts - general cooking principles
For stuffing, choose large, pitted prunes. Usually dried fruits are soaked for some time so that they soften and increase in size. Then the main product needs to be squeezed out, dried, and filled with filling.

Sometimes a piece of nut is simply stuffed into prunes and sauces or cream are poured on top. The method of stuffing depends on the chosen recipe, the desired amount of filling, and the size of the prunes.

How to choose prunes for dessert
In order for the dish to be tasty and as healthy as possible, you need to choose the right prunes. Buy fruits that are bright black, matte (the less shine, the better). High-quality prunes are fleshy, slightly soft and elastic: when you press on them, they do not lose their shape. Ignore dried fruits colored brown or blue: a brown tint indicates that the fruits were treated with boiling water to increase shelf life, and a blue tint indicates that glycerin was used to give them a marketable appearance. Meanwhile, glycerin is difficult to wash off and is also harmful to health. If possible, taste the prunes when purchasing. If it is bitter, this indicates an expired shelf life or improper processing. The high quality of all dessert ingredients is the key to good taste, and beneficial effects on the body.
