Cherry pickles are great appetizer and go well with cold meat. I have wanted to make marinated cherries in vinegar since I tasted them at a restaurant. I hesitated to publish this recipe last year, when cherry-picking season was at its peak; I preferred to try it myself and wait for the results before sharing it with you — just in case it turned out badly! As I did not have any recipe, I improvised and waited a few months before tasting. The result is surprising! Just try this “make and forget” recipe. Your cherries will be ready at the end of summer!
