Ciliege e Vino

Add this cherry soup to a bowl of vanilla ice cream or eat it with a spoon and nothing else!

Ingredients

• 1 cup cherries, pitted
• 1 1/2 cups bold red wine, like a Cabernet Sauvignon
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 tablespoon orange zest
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg

Preparation

Put all ingredients into a heavy but small put. Heat pot on stove top over medium-low heat and let barely simmer, if at all, for 1/2 hour. Remove from heat and let cool until it is not too warm to eat.
