DRIED CHERRY CHILI

This recipe, which I haven't made yet, comes from the Cherry Marketing Institute and is loaded with antioxidants. They recommend that you garnish with corn strips, red onion and avocado. It could be made vegetarian, and I'd like to try it with beef. I would increase the spices, too.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe and plump cherries for drying. Unripe or damaged cherries will not dry properly and will not have the same flavor.
  • Wash the cherries thoroughly before drying. This will remove any dirt or debris that may be on the cherries.
  • Pit the cherries before drying. This will make them easier to eat and will also help them to dry more evenly.
  • Dry the cherries in a single layer on a baking sheet or drying rack. This will ensure that they dry evenly and do not stick together.
  • Place the cherries in a warm, dry place with good air circulation. This will help them to dry quickly and evenly.
  • Stir the cherries occasionally as they are drying. This will help to prevent them from sticking together and will also help them to dry more evenly.
  • Once the cherries are dry, store them in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. They will keep for up to 6 months.

Conclusion:

Dried cherries are a delicious and versatile snack that can be enjoyed on their own or added to a variety of dishes. They are a good source of antioxidants and fiber, and they can help to boost your immune system. Making your own dried cherries is a great way to save money and enjoy a healthy snack. With a little planning and effort, you can easily create delicious and nutritious dried cherries at home.
