What it is

Dried Montmorency cherries are a variety of tart cherry, grown primarily in North America. They are harvested when ripe, then dried using methods like air drying or freeze-drying to remove moisture and concentrate their flavor and nutrients.

Why it's used

Dried Montmorency cherries are often used to add a tart, fruity flavor and chewy texture to foods. They are commonly found in baked goods, trail mixes, cereals, yogurt, and as a topping for desserts.

Health notes

Dried Montmorency cherries are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. They contain antioxidants and may have anti-inflammatory properties, though research is ongoing. International bodies like EFSA have evaluated cherries and their components, but no specific evaluations for dried Montmorency cherries as a distinct ingredient are widely cited.
