Nothing says summer to us more than ranier cherries.
Bing cherries used to be the favorite--but these have replaced bing. Some people call them Queen Anne cherries--but here in northern Illinois they are Ranier cherries and the biggest and most lush come from Washington state.
But these cherries come at a price--and some serious sticker shock. SERIOUS cha-ching sticker shock. The season is short. We do not grown them in our yard. (honey and peaches take up our sunshine) And I do not care what they cost. When they show up at Caputo's--I buy them.
I am frugal at heart. I shop carefully for food. Our menus are based on weekly sales--not on what we are hungry for--whatever the cost.
Except when it comes to ranier cherries...
