This compote tastes as good as it looks. I forgot to buy an orange and so used 1/3rd cup orange/peach juice instead. I did need to thicken it a bit with the cornstarch. For sure I am going to buy a cherry pitter before I make the turn overs. I was reluctant to buy another "gadget" but I can see I will be making this many times when cherries are in season every year.

So Delicious!

Instead of the orange juice, we added almond extract instead...omitting the orange juice really let the flavor of the cherries shine through and the extract just seemed to highlight the flavor of the cherries. All-in-all, it was fantastic!

Evans cherries

We have Evans cherries in our back yard which are smaller and more tart so I added just a bit more sugar and omitted the orange juice, (didn't have any oranges or juice).This is delicious with mascarpone cheese too!
