This Cherry Spice preserve combines the natural sweetness of cherries with warm spices for a versatile, flavorful spread. Cinnamon dominates the spice profile, complemented by subtle notes of ginger, cloves, and almond extract that enhance the fruit's natural flavor. The pectin-based recipe ensures perfect consistency every time. Makes six 8-oz jars—ideal for morning toast, pastry fillings, or cheese pairings. A beautiful way to preserve summer's bounty with an aromatic twist!

💬 Uncle Dave says...
I am not sure what this is. A drink? A dessert? A spread? Sure-Jell is a pectin, so maybe this is a spread like jam or jelly. Your guess is as good as mine as to where to add the cloves.

🙄 Help: Seriously? You don't need any help.
🌄 What's Up With The Images? Well, originally, we didn't have any pictures of the food at all. Intentionally! Because I find those sites with so many pictures that it takes forever to get through the directions to be annoying AF! I mean, seriously, if you need a picture to show you how to stir something, you shouldn't be cooking!
Then I decided to add pictures of the finished product when I remembered to take them, which isn't very often. There are a very few recipes which actually show some cooking steps, but not in the middle of the directions.
Anyway, recently I have discovered that AI can make credible images of the finished recipe. Is that right? Is it moral? Are robots taking over the world? Don't know; don't care. But I promise that unless you are a robot, your recipes won't turn out anything like the pictures.
💯 Why There Are Recipe Numbers Missing: Well, it's like this. The recipe numbers are automatically generated by the database, always using a new number for a new recipe. Over the last 20 years many recipes, mostly test recipes, have been added and then deleted, leaving only their memory and their number behind. And there was also a lot of weird stuff going on in the beginning, which messed up the order. In terms of date added, the first one is #6, then #4, #9, #10, #4, #718!!!, #2, and finally #1. Just the way databases and poor programmers work!
