Dried cherries at home

Prepare dried cherries - a very tasty vitamin supplement. Dried cherries at home are especially useful for use in children's diets. More often housewives use cherries boiled in sugar syrup for drying - it turns out a delicious product, but absolutely devoid of vitamins during heat treatment. Therefore, I advise you to dry the berry at low temperatures in the oven or in the air. This process is lengthy, but the result is worth it. such cherries can be served with tea or coffee, added to cereals, cottage cheese, to any baking.

Cooking time: 2 d

Step 1:
To prepare dried cherries at home, take ripe cherry berries. You will also need any device for extracting bones. The easiest way is to take a garlic press with a special nozzle.
Step 2:
Wash the cherry berries well and let the water drain completely, drain the berry. Next, you need to extract the seeds from each berry - this is the most time-consuming activity in this long process of cooking dried cherries. Keep in mind that the berries are splashing with juice! Put the berries in a bowl, from which then drain the juice that has flowed out of them.
Step 3:
Put the pitted berries on the surface, lining it with several layers of kitchen towels. Let the cherry lie down a little, preferably 2 hours. Excess liquid will be absorbed into the towels. Line a baking sheet with parchment and spread the cherries evenly over the surface. Put in an oven heated to 60-70 degrees for 3-4 hours. Keep an eye on the moisture content of the berries, if necessary, dry them again.
Step 4:
Put the dried berries in a larger bowl, sprinkle with powdered sugar, shake to evenly distribute the powder.
Step 5:
Store dried cherry berries in a dry, tightly closed jar, or in paper bags made of parchment, can be stored in the freezer (so it will last longer from home).
