Sherry-Soaked Cherries
Posted by Olivia on Mon, September 12, 2011
Sweet, tart, and popping with bright flavor, these soaked cherries are versatile for all your seasonal recipes.
Spoon over ice cream (did you know we make Olive Oil Ice Cream?), over grilled fruits, over roasted and grilled meats, or spooned into yogurt or whipped cream for a summer parfait.
Ingredients
1/2 pound fresh cherries, pitted, halved
¼ cup Sherry Balsamic Vinegar
1/2 cup water or cherry juice
1 tablespoon sherry or port, optional
Directions
- Combine cherries, vinegar, water, and sherry in a small saucepan; bring to a boil over high heat.
- Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until cherries are softened and plump, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Serve warm or chilled.
Makes about 2 cups.
