Some time ago I often wondered, why do people even bother with growing sour cherries, they are just so… sour. If you want cherry flavour, get yourself bing cherries. If you want sour, um… a lemon? Boy, was I wrong.
Sour cherries are actually the cherries used in confectionary and dessert making. As surprising as it is, bing cherries taste and smell rather bland when cooked, and it’s the sour cherries that give all that cherry flavor to candy, cakes, pie fillings and what not.
