Mirabelle Plums, 1kg

Mirabelle Plums 1kg are 1kg of Mirabelle plums – the tiny, golden-yellow French plum from Lorraine that is one of the great seasonal pleasures of late summer. Mirabelle plums are intensely sweet with a delicate, honey-like flavour. As a result, they produce outstanding jams, tarts and eau-de-vie and are equally good eaten fresh from the hand. Furthermore, the Mirabelle de Lorraine carries protected status and grows only in a very specific region of north-eastern France. In particular, their brief season from July to September makes them a genuinely fleeting seasonal pleasure.

About Mirabelle Plums 1kg

We source our fruit from specialist growers and importers across Britain, Europe and beyond. In particular, we select every variety for its flavour, ripeness and provenance. As a result, the fruit we deliver meets a standard well above what most supermarkets carry. Furthermore, we prioritise varieties with genuine character over commodity produce bred purely for shelf life and appearance. These varieties exist because growers selected them for taste, not yield or resilience in transit. However, they require more careful handling and a shorter supply chain. In particular, the finest fruit is always seasonal – it arrives at its peak and disappears just as quickly. Additionally, we work only with suppliers who understand this. A short supply chain from orchard or grove to your door makes all the difference. That is why Mirabelle Plums 1kg from The Artisan Food Company consistently impresses even the most discerning cooks.

Why Choose Mirabelle Plums 1kg From Us

Cooking and eating with genuinely fine fruit transforms everyday preparations. In contrast to commodity fruit, these varieties carry flavour, aroma and character that rewards both simple eating and careful cooking. As a result, the best preparation is often the simplest. Furthermore, quality fruit always speaks for itself. We deliver direct from our suppliers so you receive fruit at its prime. However, even the finest fruit needs a little attention. In particular, most fruit is best stored at room temperature until ripe, then refrigerated only once it reaches the right stage. Moreover, cold storage suppresses both aroma and flavour. Additionally, the variety and provenance of what you buy matters. That is why we choose these fruits so carefully.

How to Use Mirabelle Plums 1kg

To get the very best from Mirabelle Plums 1kg:

• Eat fresh at room temperature when fully ripe – Mirabelles are at their most fragrant and sweet when soft to the touch.
• Halve, stone and use in a classic French tart with frangipane or a simple clafoutis.
• Furthermore, Mirabelle plums make an outstanding jam – their natural sweetness reduces the amount of sugar needed.
• Additionally, simmer with a little sugar and vanilla to make a compote for yoghurt, pancakes or ice cream.

Perfect Pairings

Mirabelle Plums 1kg pairs beautifully with:

• Good vanilla cream, creme fraiche or vanilla ice cream alongside
• Frangipane, butter pastry or a simple sponge in a tart or cake
• A glass of Mirabelle eau-de-vie, Riesling or a light Alsace wine
• Aged goats cheese or a fresh ricotta for a simple summer dessert plate

Storage: Store at room temperature until fully ripe. Once ripe, refrigerate and use within a few days. However, cold storage suppresses aroma and flavour – always return to room temperature before eating. Furthermore, most fruit is best used as soon as possible after delivery for the finest flavour. Delivered at the right stage of ripeness and ready to enjoy.

However you enjoy it, Mirabelle Plums 1kg brings a depth of flavour and quality that commodity produce simply cannot match. Moreover, the finest seasonal fruit is one of the great pleasures of the table.
