Cornelian Cherry
Fruit
Food
Fruit can be eaten raw, dried or used in preserves. Juicy, with a nice acid flavour. The fully ripe fruit has a somewhat plum-like flavour and texture and is very nice eating, but the unripe fruit is rather astringent. It is rather low in pectin and so needs to be used with other fruit when making jam. The fruit makes superb jams, stewed fruits, jellies, marmelades, beverages and wines.
