1 quart sour cherries, pitted

¼ teaspoon cinnamon

1 tablespoon cornstarch

1 large egg, slightly beaten

1 tablespoon grated ginger

baking paper

baking sheet

cookie cutter

oven

wire rack

Cooking instruction summary:

Procedures 1 In a medium size saucepan combine cherries, 1/2 cup of sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, ginger, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Bring to boil then reduce to a simmer, stirring constantly until mixture thickens. Once mixture has thickened remove from heat and set aside to cool completely. 2 Preheat the oven to 350°F. Prep the puff pastry sheets on a slightly floured surface, rolling them out to 1/4 of an inch thick. Using a three-inch cookie cutter or a drinking glass with a 3 inch diameter, cut out 18 rounds from the puff pastry. Lay out the rounds on two baking sheets prepared with parchment paper. 3 Brush rounds with lightly beaten egg. Stretch the edges slightly of half the clam so they create a slight pocket for the filling. 4 Fill the pocket side with one half tablespoon to a tablespoon of cherry filling and fold the other side over. Brush tops with egg wash and sprinkle with reserved sugar. 5 Bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack. Any remaining dough scraps can be re-rolled to make additional rounds (though they may not have as much puff and rise as the first batch)

Food Trivia

The fig is also a fertility symbol and the Arab association with male genitals is so strong that the original word 'fig' is considered improper.

Food Joke

The Passover test [My thanks to Jeff G for the following] Sean is waiting for a bus when another man joins him at the bus stop. After 20 minutes of waiting, Sean takes out a sandwich from his lunch box and starts to eat. But noticing the other man watching, Sean asks, "Would you like one? My wife has made me plenty." "Thank you very much, but I must decline your kind offer," says the other man, "I’m Rabbi Levy." "Nice to meet you, Rabbi," says Sean, "but my sandwiches are alright for you to eat. They only contain cheese. There’s no meat in them." "It’s very kind of you," says Rabbi Levy, "but today we Jews are celebrating Passover. It would be a great sin to eat a sandwich because during the 8 days of Passover, we cannot eat bread. In fact it would be a sin comparable to the sin of adultery." "OK," says Sean, "but it’s difficult for me to understand the significance of what you’ve just said." Many weeks later, Sean and Rabbi Levy meet again. Sean says, "Do you remember, Rabbi, that when we last met, I offered you a sandwich which you refused because you said eating bread on Passover would be as great a sin as that of adultery?" Rabbi Levy replies, "Yes, I remember saying that." "Well, Rabbi," says Sean, "that day, I went over to my mistress’s apartment and told her what you said. We then tried out both the sins, but I must admit, we just couldn’t see the comparison."
