• You can use for your 1kg of nectarines (I guess with skin and cores?) about 100g of sugar, because nectarines are much less sour than apricot, and 4 spoon of water.
  Other way: peel your fruits, dispose cores, cut in pieces, add sugar, no water, cover and let rest for the night. This will make a syrup during the night, useful for cooking the day after, and no need of water.

• To the New Zealander who used local honey... about how much honey did you use in place of honey? Or perhaps the author of the recipe has an idea? Sounds delicious.

• Honey in place of honey ? Sorry, I'm not sure to understand the question.

• This was a goood recipe, but I did think that it was too sweet. Next time I will cut back on the amount of sugar. Yummy with plain yoghurt, but too sweet to have with icecream. Thanks for the recipe!

• About how long does this take and is there anything that I can use this for? You mentioned like jam on toast... But is there a way that I can incorporate it into a dessert? The internet is not helping at the moment...

• You can use it in several express dessert, for example:- In a glass a layer of stewed apricots, and then a layer of mascarpone cream (see new tiramisu recipe).- On top of a riz au lait- Inside a quatre-quartsAnd my favourite, mixed with some crème chantilly.

• Have just used this recipe with our new season apricots in Central Otago, New Zealand. Substituted local pure clover honey for sugar - divine! Thank you.
