Canning Cherries For Winter Use In Home Preserves
Naomi Doebel notes cherry trees are heavy with fruit and households should can surplus for winter. A Janzow Linn County assistant says one bushel yields 18 to 20 quarts, or one quart unsweetened per two quarts pitted. Wash pit or leave whole, prick unpitted with a needle, pack hot jars, cover with syrup or juice, adjust lids, and process 20 minutes in hot water bath. Canned unsweetened cherries save sugar and suit winter pies. A Bungalow cooking school tested the following recipe from Iowa Electric Light and Power Co.
