Ingredients

1. 1/4 pound dried apricots, cut into 1/4-inch pieces
2. 1/4 cup dried cherries, coarsely chopped
3. 1 shallot, minced
4. 1 1/2 teaspoons minced crystallized ginger
5. 1/2 cup dry white wine
6. 3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
7. 3 tablespoons water
8. 3 tablespoons sugar
9. 1 teaspoon dry mustard
10. 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
11. 1 tablespoon unsalted butter

1. In a small saucepan, combine the apricots, cherries, shallot, ginger, wine, vinegar, water and sugar and bring to a boil. Cover and cook over moderate heat until the liquid is absorbed and the fruit is softened, about 10 minutes. Stir in the dry mustard, Dijon mustard and butter. Simmer until the mostarda is jamlike, 2 to 3 minutes longer. Serve the mostarda warm or at room temperature.
