Zerrin, Today I purchased yellow cherries from a french lady at my french lesson today, she has yellow cherries growing on her land, my teacher told me to add sugar to them and Kirsch and get a lovely drink.
But hey preston I found your sight and wow your jam looks great so that is what I am going to make. Fingers crossed it turn out like yours. And the paper clip will have to be the de-pipper.
Many thanks for recipes.

Jenna- I was on vacation and just returned, so sorry for a late reply. As you say, you’re not alone knowing yellow cherries. You’re so lucky to have its tree full of cherries. You asked if yellow cherry jam could be canned. Actually, if you put the jam in glass jars and put the jars in a dark and dry place, you can keep it for months.

AHA! Everyone thinks I’m crazy here in Washington State in the U.S. when I speak of my yellow cherry tree, with cherries that taste similar to apricots. Now I know I truly am right! My cherry tree is literally PREGNANT with cherries, branches drooping to the ground, more cherries than 10 people could pick in a day! Do you know if this recipe could be canned?

The jam is beautiful – like little spots of sun! I enjoyed your childhood memories of cherry trees at your grandmother’s home; they add more sweetness to these fruits than any sugar. Many thanks for this recipe! I’ve never tried making such a jam before but this looks quite easy to do.

And congratulations on your well-deserved award. I just watched ‘Knowing’ last weekend, too, although the ending was rather sad. By the way, soon you’ll have enough of your mother’s illustrations to publish a book!
