Friends! Cherries are here. We’re stoked on these warm, sweet summer treats and decided to revisit a cherries jubilee recipe from last year’s “Fire and Fiction” issue….
Cherries Jubilee
1# Sweet Cherries
1/2 cup Sugar
1 Tablespoon corstarch
pinch salt
1 cup orange juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 cup brandy
vanilla ice cream
Remove stems from cherries. Whisk together sugar, brown sugar, cornstarch and pinch of salt. In a medium sauce pan over high heat, heat sugar mixture, orange juice, vanilla extract and nutmeg until simmering and starts to thicken. Add cherries and bring to a boil. Add in brandy and carefully tilt towards flame so alcohol ignites. Cook cherries until the flames die down. Pour over ice cream.
