Sour Cherry Compote



My friend S came by several weeks ago with her annual jars of sour cherry compote her family made.  They are great on ice cream or cheesecake, even on toast.  I will share them with friends to use now, as they are not preserved.

I still have to get around to making brandy cherry jam. These are the cherries soaked to make cherry brandy. Too good to waste

Those look great. Nothing like homemade goodness!

It's a shame it's not preserved but nothing beats home made.

They looks so pretty! I am usually more into sweet cherries than sour ones though it sounds like you have some excellent uses for them...

Sounds delicious. It would be wonderful for a tea party with scones.

Oh yummmm.... We had a sour cherry tree in Illinois, but we didn't do anything with the cherries until the last couple of years we were there. I wish I'd learned how to make compote.
