Fantastic Cherry Recipes
Anyone who's stood over a sink pitting a bowlful with stained hands can attest to the cherry's dangerous squirtability. Sweet,
deep-crimson Bing and peachy-colored Rainier are most abundant—and what we use in our recipes—though you might find yellow
or inky purple varieties, too. If you live in an area where sour cherries reign, by all means use those; just be sure to balance the tang with a bit more sweetness.
We'll start with Bourbon Candied Cherries.
The taste of a Manhattan in a fruit snack! Serve the cherries as a fun party nibble, or use in cocktails. Don't toss the soaking
liquid—stir it into cocktails, or drizzle over ice cream or pound cake. The cherries taste best after soaking at least three
days (we loved them after six days), and they will keep in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
