| Hey, Forest Range Cherries is just down the road from our place! Yeah, clafoutis would be good. Cherry jam, of course. Preserved cherries in your preserving unit. Which variety of cherry do you have? |

| Lorraine, I recently tried dried cherries produced by a commercial farm near Glenrowan and they were yummy. Do you have access to a dehydrator? If so it may be worth a try too! Regards,

| Sounds like a little paradise, Lorraine! A dehydrator is definitely great in that case. I use it very often and don't have an orchard like yours. |
RE: cherries

| I make Clafoutis often - looks harder than it is. Haven't tried dehydrading them - just picked up a few kg black ones and will give that a try. Thanks for the tip - would you de-pit first? I hate that job.......... Cosmic |

| Linda, de-pip them first. Get a cherry de-pipper. Another cute little kitchen gadget. :) Uh, you do have grandkids, don't you? Little hands for fiddly jobs like this.... |
RE: cherries

| Thanks Spatz - I've got a couple of de-pippers tried it on the girlies last year - after they had done 6 they decided it was a Grandma job. Never mind, they do well at bread making and broad bean podding. Lorraine, I've now retired from active teaching and lecturing so I can concentrate more on the gardening side of cosmic activity. I'm developing a running calendar for the website with daily advice - an upgrade with more info than the 'try out' that I have there now. After I've tried out the new cultivator ( Bob's 70th birthday present) I will be doing some work on that. Cheers
