    This apricot lekvar is delicious and easy to make. Thick, but still spreadable, texture. I used sulfite-free organic dried apricots - I always think their flavor is more complex than that of other dried apricots and since this lekvar is primarily dried apricots, their flavor dominates. I substituted plain brandy for the apricot or peach brandy specified in the recipe - still delicious. It's kept very well in the freezer and thaws quickly.
