Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Rest time approx. 3 hours; Total time approx. 3 hours 30 minutes

Bring the red wine to a boil, add the sugar, cinnamon stick, cloves, and prunes, and simmer over low heat to allow the prunes to swell. Remove the fruit and chill. Reduce the liquid to a syrup, then strain through a sieve and let cool, then add the prunes back in. Place the egg yolks, sugar, vanilla bean pulp, and milk in a saucepan and beat in a bain-marie until creamy, then let cool. Fold the stiffly whipped cream and cinnamon powder into the cooled cream. Line a loaf pan with plastic wrap, add the cream powder, and freeze for at least 3 hours. Arrange the parfait on a large plate with the red wine plums and some of the syrup, and serve dusted with cinnamon powder.
