How to use Maggie Beer fruit paste

Maggie uses her fruit pastes in so many ways for that signature Maggie Beer flavour. Tangy fruit pastes are wonderful simply added to a ravioli filling, or salad dressing. Try melting a spoonful of fruit paste with a dash of Maggie’s verjuice and brush over a chook, or a rack of lamb before roasting for a real flavour burst. Brush a little fruit paste on a thick steak or add to some good stock for a BBQ basting sauce. Maggie Beer quince paste is a special treat added to desserts. Try making cup cakes or tarts with a square of quince paste in the base. While the recipe ideas for fruit paste are endless, if you have a sweet tooth, the simplest way to enjoy Maggie’s sweet fruit pastes is to roll small cubes of paste in cinnamon sugar and serve alongside tea or coffee.
