➤ When: Sweet cherries are available starting in late May. Sour (tart) cherries ripen later and appear for just a few weeks in July. They’re only a little less sweet than Bing or Rainier cherries and have a delightful, subtle tang. Rainier and Royal Anne cherries are suncolored and blushed with flavor—buy them wherever you find them; they’re special.
➤ What to Look For: Cherries should be firm and have a shiny surface. A green stem indicates they were just picked. In general, the darker the color, the longer the cherry’s been on the tree, and the more flavorful it is.
➤ Why: Cherries are a rich source of antioxidants, which help fight cancer and heart disease.
➤ How to Use: Cherries can be pitted, dried, and eaten as a snack or used in breads and muffins. They are frequently used in desserts, such as cherry cobbler, or as a topping or sauce.
