Cherry preserves cooking instruction:
Wash the fruits and remove the pits from the cherries. Put alternately cherries and sugar in the pot, in several layers and water on the end.
Put the pot on the low heat, till sugar melts and then continue to cook cherry preserves in moderate temperature, till it become thick (when preserves fall in thick drops from the spoon).
Remove the pot from the heat, cover it and let it stand about 10 minutes (cherries to release some juice).
Return the pot on the heat, cook it for 15 minutes more and remove it from heat.
When it is done, remove foam, which gathered on the surface of the preserves, with the spoon. Cover the pot with a clean gauze and let it over night.
Pour your fruit preserves in clean jars.
