My neighbor has a sour cherry tree and lets me pick as much as I want

Picked, cleaned, pitted (while watching mst3k) and froze 20 cups. Still tons more but I think I’m done

    What are some good ways to enjoy sour cherries? Do you sweeten them?

    I didn’t know there was an actual tool for pitting cherries. Thank you internet stranger.

    Lucky you!!! Sour cherries make the best pie & jam.

    So jealous! If I can find any in the farmers market at all, they always cost an arm and a leg.

    I love sour cherries! One of the bakeries I used to work at would make large batches of pie filling with a steam kettle. I would go take a couple frozen cherries from the pot to eat before they cooked. Delicious!

    Everyone else is here for the cherries and I’m over here like “I see you, mst3k fan”

    You lucky SOB. I had one growing up and the pies and cobblers were they best. Enjoy, also see if you got any neighbors that have a rhubarb “problem” to pair it up.

    I’ve never seen a sour cherry tree in US, as Persians, we love sour cherries. From sour cherry jam to sour cherry rice. May I ask where your friend lives and how did he acquire that?

    The house I grew up in had a high-producing sour cherry tree. They tasted sweet and tart to me. Every summer, I’d eat them right off the tree. My parents sold the house about two years ago. I miss it.
