Oh Jenny, I just had the funniest image of you sitting there with your legs crossed on the floor cracking all those hulls with your teeth. Thanks for sharing with me – that is fascinating!

Thanks so much for this recipie. Costco has frozen organic sweet cherries right now and we happened to have some in the house. I whipped up some of this tonight and my kids loved it!

I save the pits and dry them at a low temperature in my dehydrator which makes the kernel much easier to retrieve from the shell. I then crush them with my teeth (probably not sucha good idea) or with a mallet. The cherry kernels are very tiny, but don't usually break apart when the pit is crushed. They have a very strong, concentrated almond flavor, very nice. We'll be doing the same with apricot and plum kernels next year.

Take Care -

I’m really interested in what you said about the pits – how do you shell them? Do you need to crush what’s inside the shell? So you eat it? I’ve never heard of this before but just tried apricot kernals for the first time this year. I’d love to hear more about it!

Yum! I really can’t wait to try this one. My kids can’t get enough of cherries and when I offer this to them they will think they have died and gone to heaven!
