My wonderful husband often runs errands for me and often brings back surprises that make me smile...usually food related :) One evening he brought home 6lbs of cherries. My children suddenly decided they did not like cherries and so I had to think quick! Cherry coulis came to mind. I first thought it would be nice over vanilla ice cream, then I was faced with planning a dish to take to cultural cooking with an Italian theme and Panna Cotta came to mind! I made this cherry coulis for a lovely sweet and tart resting place for the cold, creamy panna cotta.
1 cup fresh cherries
1/4 cup water
3 tablespoons orange juice
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons sugar
Cook fresh cherries in water to cover over medium heat until they are falling off the pits; drain.
Place in a small saucepan with water; add orange and lemon juices. Heat until warmed through.
Press through a fine sieve into a bowl. Stir in sugar while still hot. Stir until dissolved.
