I saw some dark morello cherries in a jar at Trader Joe's and was considering a pie or tart with them. I'm wondering about the sugar content. Would they be comparable to a sour or a sweet cherry? Has anyone tried them? Deb |

They are fairly tart, but the jarred ones make a nice pie filling. They work well in a Black Forest torte as well. The syrup can be used over ice cream or in mixed drinks. Definitely worth trying if you like cherries. |

Cook's Illustrated had this to say on that: Quote: Although most of these cherry products made a cobbler filling that looked good, only one—jarred Morello cherries from Trader’s Joe—made a filling that tasted good. We loved their deep ruby red color, tart flavor, and plump and meaty texture. In fact, these cherries delivered bracing flavor and a great chew right out of the jar.

I've always used them in CI's cherry cobbler. |

I made a tart with this recipe. http://www.cookiemadness.net/2016/05/al ... e-filling/ I can't eat gluten so I used the CI GF pie crust recipe. The dough was a bit tender but the tart was very good. |
