Aside from whole fruits, the most ubiquitous Italian dessert is the macedonia, a combination of cut fresh or dried fruits served as a salad.
Dressed with sugar, or better yet jam or marmalade, and a splash of liqueur, wine or fruit juice, it is the best way to use up fruits that are not visually perfect.
Place fruits in a large serving bowl. In a small bowl, stir together marmalade and liqueur, vermouth or orange juice; gently stir into the fruits. Cover and refrigerate for 1 - 3 hrs before serving.
