where to buy apricot butter - providence

[Nicole223]

I'll be making Hamentaschen cookies for the Jewish holiday of Purim on Friday, and I was wondering if anyone knew of a place around town that sells apricot butter. Admittedly, I haven't looked everywhere yet (only Davis on Hope street and Stop and Shop so far), but I was hoping that someone could save me from a wild goose chase.

Thanks!

East Side Market, if they don't have it, is very accomodating. They'll order/stock anything you request.

PS: I like chocolate Hamentaschen personally :-)

Buy some apricots, cut them up and cook them with a little water and some sugar. That's what I do for my Hamentaschen. I do the same with prunes. I add a little lemon juice and lemon zest to both, too. The supermarkets should have the apricots over by the raisins.
