How to soak Dry Fruits for Plum Cake

In western countries the dried fruits are usually soaked in rum or wine for 3 months to one year before making Christmas cake. If you want to avoid rum or wine you can soak them in orange juice, grape juice or apple juice. When it is soaked in such juice for 12 hours it becomes tender and soft as if soaked in rum or wine.

As the Christmas is fast approaching this is the time to soak dried fruits and nuts. I hereby give below the recipe for soaking the fruits. You can try this easy recipe and share your comments with me
