Cherry Mostarda

In a medium saucepan, combine the cherries, sugar, apple cider vinegar, water, and salt. Stir to mix the ingredients well.

Add the mustard seeds, mustard powder, and black pepper to the saucepan. Stir to incorporate the spices.

Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer gently for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally. Continue to simmer until the cherries are soft and the mixture has thickened slightly.

Let the cherry mostarda cool to room temperature. Transfer the cooled mixture to a clean jar or container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Serve the cherry mostarda as a condiment with meats, cheeses, or as a flavorful addition to sandwiches and charcuterie boards.
