Nigella Lawson’s Black Cake
This festive black cake contains wine-steeped dried fruits and a topping of marmalade and marzipan.
FROM THE
RECIPE:
Cover the fruits and leave to steep for at least two weeks, but up to six months. I say up to six months – which is what Colwin writes in Home Cooking – but I must tell you that I steeped all the fruits one year in November only to find in December that I was just too exhausted to make the cake. So I used it up the following year, after 13 months' marinating. It was strong, but it was good.
