Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh cherries
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 small shallot
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons ground ginger
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
Pit and roughly chop the cherries. Set them aside.
Peel and finely dice the shallot.
In a medium-sized saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the diced shallot to the saucepan and sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until softened and fragrant.
Stir in the ground cinnamon, ground ginger, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 30 seconds to bloom the spices.
Add the chopped cherries, honey, and red wine vinegar to the saucepan. Stir well to combine.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Cook for 15-18 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cherries break down and the relish thickens to a jam-like consistency.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the relish cool to room temperature.
Transfer the Cherry Honey Relish to a jar or airtight container. Refrigerate until ready to use. The flavors will deepen after a few hours.
