You can stir this puree directly into yogurt or oatmeal for a fruity breakfast. It works wonderfully as a base for smoothies, blended with ice and other fruits. For desserts, it can be swirled into cakes, used as a filling for pastries, or drizzled over ice cream. In savory cooking, a small amount can add a sweet and tangy note to marinades for chicken or pork, or to glazes for roasted vegetables. Its smooth consistency ensures it blends seamlessly into most recipes.
