"We really like this, and there's always a small war over the apricots. Sometimes I strain the juice, add some soy sauce with a little bit of cornstarch to thicken and pour this on top."

My guests loved this, I did not add the wine and I used a pork shoulder roast. The flavors were great and the presentation when laid out on the platter was lovely!
