Publisher's Synopsis
Cherry trees and other plants of the genus Prunus produce this delicious fruit. Cherry varieties include sweet (Prunus avium) and sour (Prunus cerasus), the more common of the two. The fruit can be any shade of red, yellow, or purple, and its shape can be either round or heart-shaped.
Fresh sweet cherries are a popular and tasty snack. They have a wide range of culinary uses as well, including in sweets, jams, and preserves. Conversely, tart cherries are commonly utilized in the kitchen for their sour flavor that can enhance the tanginess of sauces, pies, and other baked goods.
Cherries are a delicious and healthy snack since they are packed with antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. They have anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving qualities, among other possible health benefits.
Cherry trees are grown all over the globe, and depending on the kind and where it is grown, the fruit is often plucked between the end of spring and the beginning of summer.
