RecipesCanning cherries
Canning cherries is a wonderful event every year, because who can resist this divinely juicy fruit. Canning cherries is also encouraged by the fact that they spoil quickly, and those who do not want to repeat the cake recipe or jam recipe this year can dive into canning. The most important thing in this process is cleanliness. Jars and lids must be perfectly cleaned or sterilized, and cherries should be thoroughly washed. If you find any with worms, soak them overnight in vinegar water. The worms will obediently float to the surface, and you will have fruit without its original inhabitants. Canning cherries can be done in two ways – in a pot or in the oven, it depends on you. In any case, a cherry compote will bring you great joy and service during the winter months.
