- food trivia
- Cherries, both sweet and sour, originated in eastern Europe and western Asia, and that region still produces most of the cherries in the world. In the United States (also a big cherry-producing nation), sweet cherries are grown mostly in California, Oregon, and Washington; Michigan produces most of our sour cherries.

Tips:
- For the perfect flaky crust, use a combination of butter and shortening. Butter provides flavor, while shortening helps to create a tender and flaky texture.
- Be sure to chill the dough before rolling it out. This will help to prevent the dough from shrinking in the oven.
- When filling the turnovers, be sure to leave a little space around the edges so that the filling doesn't leak out.
- Brush the tops of the turnovers with milk before baking. This will help to give them a golden brown color.
- Serve the turnovers warm with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.
