Grown in the Montmorency region since the 17th century, this small, bright red and tender cherry belonging to the Amarelle and Griotte cherry families is harvested between mid-June and mid-July. Its good resistance during cooking and slightly tangy taste make it a particularly popular ingredient. The ideal accompaniment to meat- and game-based dishes, the Montmorency cherry is also perfect for making jam and jelly. It is used in pastries, cakes, eau de vie and preserves too.
