Yield Makes about 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/4 lb fresh sour cherries, stemmed
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2/3 cup water
1/2 teaspoon rose water (preferably French)

Steps:

  • Pit cherries over a bowl to catch any juices. Whisk together sugar and cornstarch in a 3-quart saucepan, then add water and any cherry juice, whisking until smooth. Add cherries and bring to a boil over moderate heat, stirring. Boil, stirring, 2 minutes, then drain in a sieve set over a bowl.
  • Return juices to saucepan and simmer, stirring occasionally, until syrup is slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir in rose water, then pour syrup over cherries in a bowl and cool.
