    What to Do with Lots of Fresh Cherries?

    Cherries are such a versatile ingredient and you can never have too many of them! It’s easy to cook up a batch of cherry jam. For canning, you can store canned jam in a cool place for up to one year. You can also use cherries in pies, cakes, and other pastries, or in savory dishes, vegetable or fruit salads, and desserts. 

    Can You Freeze Fresh Cherries?

    A good way to preserve cherries is to freeze them. Frozen cherries can keep from 6 months up to a year. You can use them in smoothies and sorbets, or to bake into pies. The possibilities are endless!
