Apricot Fruit Spread
Maison Francis Miot’s range of “family-size” spreads and jams is perfect for big families or to create delicious tarts and baked sweets.
The products offer excellent value for money, considering that they are served in the buffet breakfasts of some of the most prestigious international hotels in the world including the Burj-al-Arab & Four Seasons in Dubai, the Ritz Carlton in Abu Dhabi and the Waterside Inn in London, to name just a few. Attracted from a very young age by the culinary art, Monsieur Francis Miot cultivated his passion, which led him to the creation of a flourishing collection of award-winning spreads and jams that earned the company the titles of three-times World Marmalade Champion (1988-1990-1991) and two-times French Marmalade Champion (1987-2013).
During his long 30-year career, Monsieur Francis Miot has accompanied and supported his employees and collaborators in their artistic and qualitative growth, astounding and amazing French and international customers. The principles on which the company is founded are few, but well-representative of its founder’s philosophy: the aspiration to excellence, the constant quality – both in the raw material and in the finished product –, the artisanal nature of the production process and, finally, creativity – a fundamental ingredient in today’s saturated jam sector.
Only copper and stainless steel cauldrons are used to make the spreads, for a maximum of 100 kg of fruit: the cooking time is short and over a low heat (between 5-10 minutes at 90 to 100 °C), allowing all the original taste of the fruit to be preserved. In fact, short cooking times mean less sugar and a richer fruit flavor. Moreover, in true artisanal tradition, the spreads are treated exclusively with beech wood spatulas and visually controlled to arrive at the right consistency of the fruit during cooking.
Sterilization does not take place in an autoclave – which would be like cooking the jams twice – but the jars are instead turned upside down for 10 minutes in a totally sanitized manner. These small steps – simple to write down but difficult to carry out – help elevate Miot spreads into genuine artisanal products.
