Door county cherry relish

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
3 cups Pitted Door County cherries; (any tart pie cherries will do)
1 cup Seedless raisins
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
¼ teaspoon Cloves
½ cup Honey
½ cup Vinegar
½ cup Brown sugar
1 cup Broken pecan or walnut nut meats

Directions

Combine all ingredients in a saucepan and cook slowly for one hour. Add the nuts and cook 3 minutes longer. Ladle into hot sterlized jars, leaving ¼ inch space at top. Adjust the lids. If you're not going to use it soon, process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes. It can also be cooled and frozen, rather than processed.

This keeps well in the refrigerator, as well.
