Peaches and Blackberries in Brandied Blackberry Sauce image

Sometimes the idea is not to be original or creative in the kitchen, but merely to be expedient and to satisfy. The fresh produce of summer makes this easier. Here, peaches and blackberries - the freshest to be found - soak in an easy, no-cook brandy sauce until you're ready to eat them. Top with creme fraiche, or not. Either way, the "black honey of summer," as Mary Oliver wrote, is yours.
