How To Can Sun Cherries

Use equal parts sugar and seeded cherries. Put in porcelain kettle and boil fifteen minutes. Spread cherries thinly on platter and set in the sun for two or three days or until syrup is sufficiently thick, then place in jars and seal.

How To Can Steamed Cherries

Fill as many fruit jars with seeded cherries as you can, set in a large kettle or boiler. Put the lids on but do not fasten them. Have as much cold water in the kettle as you can without upsetting the jars. Let the water come to the boil and steam the cherries until heated through; it will not take long; then take the jars out and drain off the juice. Have sugar dissolved in a very rich syrup and pour on the cherries, put on the rubbers and lids but do not fasten perfectly tight until they steam a little longer and you remove them from the water. They will retain the flavor of fresh fruit much better than the ordinary way of canning cherries. The juice of the cherries may be canned for mince meat or set in the refrigerator until cold and made into a refreshing drink for hot weather.
