The harvest of cherries is about to end, but on our tables we will still have, fortunately, for quite a while. If you like to eat them alone, as a fruit after a meal or as a snack, why not even think about using them as ingredients in many dishes, sweet and savory?

Cherries can be enjoy in salads (here are some ideas), or they can accompany an entire menu. Cooked the right way, they go well with meat, with fish as well as being, of course, the main ingredient of many desserts.

Not counting all the varieties that can be used (tenerine is duracine, then marasche, amarene – many ideas to use them in savory dishes – and sour cherries) and their nutritional properties. I'm digestive, purifying, detoxifying, they contain a lot of fiber and not too many calories. I'm antioxidants thanks to anthocyanins and make benefits to the skin thanks to the presence of flavonoids, vitamin A and C.

Here five recipes to bring them to the table from the appetizer to the dessert.
