Morello cherry; English Morello cherry
[ muh-REHL-oh ]
Seldom found fresh, this sour
CHERRY with dark red skin and flesh is used in a variety of processed products. The blood-red juice is used in making liqueurs and brandies, and the cherries can be found canned, packed in syrup, dried and in preserves. The sharp, sour taste makes the Morello unsuitable for eating raw but perfect for cooking. See also
CHERRY.
