Cherry Salsa
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups Rainier cherries, pitted and halved
1 jalapeño, diced (remove seeds for mild salsa)
2 tbsp shallot, minced
1 tbsp sugar
1 1/2 tbsp champagne or sherry vinegar
1 tbsp olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Try smoking cherries on the grill or charring them in a dry pan. Salsa pairs well with pork, chicken & fish.
Combine cherries, jalapeño, shallot, sugar and vinegar in a medium bowl. Add vinegar and stir to combine. Rest covered, in the refrigerator until ready to serve, at least one hour.
Prior to serving, add olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Salsa will keep up to one week, sealed in the refrigerator.
