Overnight Ruby-Red Butter




Ingredients:

half-dozen lbs cherries, pitted
1/3 loving cup balsamic vinegar
1 loving cup water
1 loving cup lite chocolate-brown sugar
1/3 loving cup sugar


Place all ingredients inward a 4-quart irksome cooker, pressing downward to shell the cherries plenty to last able to unopen the lid, if needed. Cook on high ii hours. Mash amongst a spud masher.



Continue to create on low, amongst the lid slightly ajar, overnight or until it has reduced past times half. Use an immersion blender to blend until smooth. I too hence whisked it through a sieve to brand it extra smoothen but that is optional.

Ladle the butter into prepared jars leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Process inward the hot H2O bathroom for 10 minutes. I used my electric canner which takes the same amount of fourth dimension equally processing on the stove but without heating upwardly the house. If y'all don't desire to can, only refrigerate it too role it inside 2-3 weeks.

Yield: virtually ii pints

My thoughts:
I've e'er idea it was fell that canning flavor too summertime coincide. I mean, it plainly makes sense, y'all are preserving the harvest but why does it lead hold to last hence hot? We don't lead hold central air conditioning, entirely 1 room unit of measurement for the outset floor, too it gets hot!

Luckily, I lead hold the wages of modern technology. As it turns out, it is tardily to brand fruit butter inward my irksome cooker too and hence role my electric canner to tin it without heating upwardly the house. Of course, y'all tin exercise both (using this same recipe) on the stove overstep too the traditional canning pot equally well.

Northwest Cherry Growers contacted me virtually beingness a canbassader again this yr too I had a infinitesimal of panic when I realized I was called for jury duty too had to exit of town for a marriage straight afterward the cherries were to arrive. To brand things easier for me, I pitted the cherries (use a pitter, salvage yourself) spell watching telly too made this cherry butter irksome cooker butter vs a to a greater extent than complicated, hands-on recipe spell pitting fifty-fifty to a greater extent than cherries. The flavor is even hence at that spot but the hands-on fourth dimension is seriously diminished, a major addition when it comes to cherries which are 1 of the to a greater extent than labor-intensive fruits to prep too can. The balsamic seems strange but it deepens the flavor too keeps the butter from beingness overwhelmingly sweet. It likewise helps the acidity hence it is prophylactic to can.
