Ingredients
- 2 cups frozen or fresh sweet cherries $3.33
- ½ cup sugar $0.22
- 1 pinch salt $0.01
- 1 lemon $0.30
- 1 Tbsp cornstarch $0.03
- 3/4 cup water $0.00
Instructions
- Place a medium-sized pot over medium heat. Add cherries, sugar, salt, and 1/2 cup of water. Stir to incorporate and bring the mixture to a soft boil.
- Use a vegetable peeler to zest the lemon in long strips. Then juice the lemon. Add the zest and just 1/2 tablespoon of the lemon juice to the pot. Stir to incorporate.
- In a separate bowl, mix the cornstarch into the remaining 1/4 cup of water until it is completely dissolved and creates a slurry. Add the cornstarch slurry and stir until incorporated. Boil the sauce for at least one more minute to activate the cornstarch.
- Continue to stir until the syrup in the cherry sauce is bubbling softly and has thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon. Take the cherry sauce off the heat, allow it to cool, and remove the strips of lemon zest. It will thicken as it cools. Enjoy!
