Preparation of Cherry compote (long-life)

Prepare the cherries

1 kg Cherries

Wash 1 kg Cherries and remove the stalks.

Fill into jars

1 L Water
8 tsp Sugar
Screw-top jars

Pour the cherries into clean Screw-top jars, preserving jars or similar jars. Add 8 tsp Sugar (1 teaspoon per glass) to the cherries. Add approx. 1 L Water to the cherries so that they are covered. The amount of water can vary. The jars with the screw-on lids or. Seal with rubber bands + lids + clips.

Preserving

Place the sealed cherry compote in a bain-marie in a deep tray or pan. About half a liter of water is sufficient for the water bath. The cherry compote is then preserved at 180 °C hot air for about half an hour. Bubbles should rise inside. Don't worry, air can also escape from the screw-top jars because the lids bulge outwards.

Cool down

As soon as the bubbles appear, remove the jars with the cherry compote from the bain-marie (be careful: hot!) and leave to cool. The screw caps should be pulled inwards slightly when cooling down. If preserving jars are used, the lid must hold firmly after cooling without clamps.
