How do you prepare cherries?

Rinse cherries with cool water right before using or eating them. To pit cherries, pluck off the stem. Use a cherry pitter to remove the pits. If you don't have a cherry pitter, you can use a toothpick, un-bent paper clip, or orange stick (as for manicures), and insert into the stem-end of the cherry. You should feel it hit the pit. Snag the pit and scoop it out. Sour cherries are the easiest to pit, but with a little practice with digging and twisting, this method is effective for sweet cherries, too. Use or freeze cherries immediately after pitting.
