Can you pickle it? Yes, you can Pucker up for these pickled sour cherries. Theyre bright and acidic, and pack a pleasant punch. Keep them around to dress up a cheese board, serve with charcuterie, or enjoy with cocktails. The pickling liquid is friendly enough to use for more than just cherries: try using it for beets, carrots or even peaches. But dont stop there; add some welcomed acidity to a martini or use it in a shrub (its like a vinegar-based soda). Use up the shallots on a salad or pulled pork sandwich for some extra tang and bite, and while youre at it, roughly chop some pickled cherries and mix them in, too.
