What is "mincemeat"?
Mincemeat is a sweet and aromatic mixture of chopped fruits, such as apples, raisins, and currants, combined with spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. It is often enhanced with a touch of brandy or rum for added depth of flavor. While historically mincemeat included meat, modern variations are usually meat-free. This versatile ingredient is commonly used as a filling for pies, tarts, and pastries, offering a delightful blend of fruity and spiced flavors that evoke a sense of warmth and nostalgia during festive seasons.
