Try These Recipes For Fresh Cherries 0

Posted on October 24, 2007 by admin

Fresh Cherries

With cherry season just getting started, here are some recipes
to use when the bins start to overflow.

–Brandied Cherries.
Put clean, dry, firm cherries into a
sterilized jar.
Add a little sugar, and cover with brandy.
Close
the jar and store in a cool, dark place.
Turn the jar every day
until sugar dissolves.

–Cherry Cobbler.
Preheat an oven to 400 degrees.
Make a
favorite cobbler crust.
Pit and stem about 4 cups of cherries.
Put
in a bowl, and toss with 1 1/2 cups flour, 1 teaspoon lemon juice
and 1/2 cup sugar.
Put the cherries in a baking dish, top with the
crust and bake for about 20 minutes, or until the crust is lightly
golden and the juice is bubbling around the edges.
Let stand 10
minutes before serving.

–Cherry Sauce.
Pit and stem about 2 cups of cherries.
Put them
in a saucepan with 1/2 cup sugar and 1/4 cup water.
Bring to a boil
over medium heat and cook, uncovered, about 15 minutes or until the
juice has thickened.
If desired, strain.
Serve the cherries warm or
cold over ice cream or cake.

–Chocolate Cherry Cake.
Make a favorite two-layer chocolate
cake and chocolate frosting.
Spread one layer with frosting; then
spread with very sweet chopped cherries.
Add the second layer and
frost.
Top with a cluster of whole cherries with stems
attached.

–Pain Perdu With Poached Cherries.
Pit about 20 cherries.
Put
them in a saucepan, and add about 3/4 cup water and 1/4 cup sugar.
Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Reduce to a simmer, and
poach for 10 to 15 minutes or until a syrup forms and the cherries
are soft but still hold their shape.

Dip thick slices of country-style bread in beaten eggs.
Melt a
nugget of butter in a skillet.
Saute the dipped bread until golden.
Serve with the cherries and their juice.
