Related to other stone fruit like peaches and plums, these sweet treats have a long history. Archaeologists have discovered fossilized cherry pits in prehistoric caves throughout Europe and Asia and cherries are mentioned in ancient Greek writings. Bake a cherry clafoutis; simmer into a jam to accompany cheese; eat out of hand.
