George Washington's Cherries
Preserving is in the headlines, and we’re here for it! On this week’s episode of Perfectly Preserved, we cover the news on George Washington’s preserved cherries and offer inspiration for how to incorporate cherries into your preserving this summer.
We bring you all the fun details on the discovery of preserved fruit at George Washington’s Mt. Vernon, including how it was found, how it was preserved, and why it may have been left behind. You’ll hear how this discovery is informing anthropologists, food scientists, and agriculturists. We also share what you need to know about the acidity of cherries before canning yourself and our favorite ways to preserve them.
Preserved cherries have been enjoyed since before the dawn of the Revolution, and it’s past time you jump on the bandwagon!
