It’s sweet cherry season, which means the first trip of the year to the local fruit farm – ‘cause I like to buy in bulk. Sweet cherries are one of my favorite snacks, and every year I hunt for new ways to keep them for the long winter. Usually I freeze several gallons of purple Bings and yellow Raniers. Sometimes I make cherry almond butter or cherry preserves. Some are dried for snacks and I also make Candied Cherries to use in fruitcake. But this year I decided to make mostarda.

What Is Mostarda?

Mostarda, also known as mostarda di frutta, is a fruit-mustard concoction from Italy’s Piedmont region. It is basically a relish-like combination of fruit and mustard. In my research though, I came across all kinds of mostarda recipes.
