Thick cherry jam
Description
Perfect for stocking up for winter. I don't know about you, but for me this recipe for thick cherry jam is one of my favorites. You get a very thick jam with pleasant notes that works well for all kinds of fillings or sauces for baked goods. And if you add a little alcohol to it, the aroma will become even stronger — I recommend it. Serve at the table or store in the pantry.
