Food on Friday: Cherries & Almonds


ON

Cherries are in season at Christmas time here which is just wonderful.  This week's theme has 2 ingredients – cherries and almonds – any dish that uses one or both of them will be most welcome.

To add your dishes, just put the name of the dish together with your blog name/name into the first Mr Linky box you will find below.  Then paste the url for your post about it into the second box.

I'll be pinning the dishes to this Pinboard which will make it easy for you to check them out at a glance.  The almost 200 links from the July 2013 collection are also on that board.

Cheers for Cherries!

  1. HI Carol, I always put chopped almonds in my homemade mincemeat. And sometimes I've used dried cherries, though I only mentioned dried cranberries in the recipe.

  3. I too love cherries, but looking through my blog I realised I haven't really cooked with them other than using them as a decoration on a cake. I just wash and eat them when they are in season. Have a great weekend!

  5. I didn't realize just how much I used cherries or almonds in my recipes. So I shared just a few, of my faves that is. Thanks for doing this again, Carole.

  6. As long as I do not have to pit them in mass quantities, I adore cherries! Cheers!

  7. Hi, Carole and all!

    The 1930s Dollar Fruitcake ( # 37 ) calls for almonds and candied cherries. I’m afraid it will cost a little more than a dollar to make.
    Happy holidays, everyone!

  9. Yep - I'm a fan of both. The cherries were amazing last year but I don't think we've seen the best of them yet this year. A spicy Cherry Sauce for cold meat on Christmas Day or even better, on Boxing Day leftovers!

  14. Carole,
    I've linked up a couple of recipes using both cherries and almonds together (somehow, since I love the smell of Jergens Cherry Almond Hand Lotion the 2 flavors are paired together in my mind) as well as some recipes using fresh cherries.
    Thanks for hosting!
