Recipes

Measure the prepared cherries into a large, heavy kettle. Add the

sugar and stir well. Place over high heat and, stirring constantly,

bring quickly to a full boil, with bubbles over the entire surface.

Add the remaining ingredients except the pectin. Boil hard for 1

minute, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat and add the

pectin. Skim off any foam. Ladle into 8 hot half-pint jars.

Seal, then process for 4 minutes in a hot water bath, counting

the time from when the water comes again to a rolling boil after

immersing the jars.
