Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh cherries
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 small shallot
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons ground ginger
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Pit and roughly chop the cherries. Set them aside.
Step 2
Peel and finely dice the shallot.
Step 3
In a medium-sized saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Step 4
Add the diced shallot to the saucepan and sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until softened and fragrant.
Step 5
Stir in the ground cinnamon, ground ginger, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 30 seconds to bloom the spices.
Step 6
Add the chopped cherries, honey, and red wine vinegar to the saucepan. Stir well to combine.
Step 7
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Cook for 15-18 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cherries break down and the relish thickens to a jam-like consistency.
Step 8
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the relish cool to room temperature.
Step 9
Transfer the Cherry Honey Relish to a jar or airtight container. Refrigerate until ready to use. The flavors will deepen after a few hours.
