I live in the Columbia River Gorge. So many cherries are produced in a very short period, that during cherry harvest, farmers sell pounds of the stuff. I created a savory recipe because there's only so much cherry pie and ice cream one man can eat!
Ingredients
- 1 pound cherries , pitted
- 1 cup cider vinegar
- 0.5 cups rice vinegar
- 1 large onion , chopped
- 1 Granny Smith apple - peeled , cored and chopped
- 0.25 cups white sugar
- 0.25 cups brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
- 2 tablespoons Chinese five-spice powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoons ground nutmeg

Place the cherries, cider vinegar, rice vinegar, onion, apple, white sugar, brown sugar, ginger, five-spice powder, salt, and nutmeg into a large pot. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Remove the lid, and continue simmering until the desired consistency has been reached. Chill before serving.
