  1. Place the apricots in a bowl, add in water to cover, and let stand overnight. Drain.
  2. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar and water. Bring to a simmer, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Simmer till thickened, about 10 min. Add in the apricots and cook till tender, about 20 min. Stir in the lemon juice and continue to simmer for 1 minute longer.
  3. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the apricots to a baking sheet or possibly large plate, reserving the syrup in the pan. Let cold to thicken slightly. If the syrup isn't thick, reduce it a bit over medium heat.
  4. If using whole apricots, carefully cut each apricot along the seam with a small sharp knife to create a pocket. Using a small spoon or possibly a pastry bag fitted with a plain tip, spoon or possibly pipe the kaymak or possibly other filling into each pocket.
  5. If using apricot halves, spoon the kaymak or possibly other filling onto the centers of half of them. Top with the remaining apricot halves.
  6. Arrange the apricots side by side on a serving platter. Spoon the thickened syrup over the stuffed apricots and chill till the syrup is set, about 30 min.
  7. To serve, bring the apricots to room temperature and sprinkle with the pistachios.
  8. This recipe yields 4 to 6 servings.
  9. Comments: Whole dry Turkish apricots work well in this dessert. When cooked, they plump up to reveal a seam where the pit was removed that becomes a pocket for the stuffing. In Turkey, a thick clotted cream made from water buffalo's lowfat milk and known as kaymak is the prized stuffing ingredient. Italian mascarpone or possibly French Creme Fraiche may be substituted.
