Oxtail in Cherry sauce
When comfort food calls, we turn to a rich, hearty Oxtail stew. But we’re giving it a twist, swapping traditional wine for the deep, "wine-ish" flavor of dark Morello cherry juice. This blend merges earthy richness with a touch of sweetness, offering a vibrant and deeply savory dish. It’s an aromatic celebration of the season’s flavors, and a true comfort on a chilly day
“Coq au vin” with cherry juice
In the heart of autumn, as the leaves begin their colorful descent, our kitchen finds solace in slow, simmered dishes. Among our favorites this season is our twist on a classic: 'Poulet au Jus de Cerise,' or 'Chicken in Cherry Sauce.' Instead of wine, we opt for dark Morello cherry juice, which holds a 'wine-like' depth and tang that elevates this dish to something special.
Dark Cherry Delight: Unveiling the Shadow Morello
From our hefty Morello cherry trees hang clusters of inky cherries, ripe and ready for juicing. With flavors reminiscent of the Nordic Stevnskirsebær or Italian amarene cherries, these Morellos make a sweet, potent juice that's perfect for a cozy bedtime drink. And the process? It's as simple as grind, strain, and sip. But beware, its deep, dramatic color can be deceiving - it's a deliciously fresh drink with a secret sleep-inducing benefit
Cherry Jubilee: A Foraging Adventure & The Joy of Sharing
Awaiting the ripening of our homegrown cherries, both sweet and slightly sour, we commenced a race against our avian friends to pluck them from their towering branches. After feasting and packing jars of our bounty, we set out on a sun-drenched journey to share the fruits of our labour with our distant neighbours.. Despite our mission of giving, we returned home richer, with hands filled with cherries from an unexpected find on our way home.
