This delicious Italian candied fruit recipe is inspired by a classic condiment from the Lombardy region of Northern Italy. Traditionally used as a topping for meats like poultry and game, or as a pairing for sharp cheeses, “mostarda di frutta” – as the Italians call it – combines fresh fruit with a little bit of mustard powder and seed to create a type of fruit preserves with a pleasant kick.

With this recipe, we added a little bit of wine for some extra deliciousness. Now round up your ingredients, grab an F.N. Sharp Utility Knife and large cutting board and let's make some Italian "candy"!
