Oh, my! From Pie! Pie! Pie! to Cobbler! Cobbler! Cobbler!
NO! Not gobble! gobble! gobble! Of course, you may just find yourself gobbling down today's menu item. Desserts are good any time and what better dessert than cobbler. We celebrated Deep Dish Deliciousnessand Oh,my! Pie! Pie! Pie! last month with their specialties being Peach Cobbler and Blueberry Pie respectfully. Ready for another cobbler? There is always room for dessert!!
You already know what's on the menu today! Cherry cobbler, a dessert made with fresh cherries and a thick, pillowy crust! It is so delicious our nation has actually declared May 17 National Cherry Cobbler Day. This red and juicy fruit makes for the perfect filling and the best sweet end to lunch or dinner or any time any between for that matter.
A bit of cherry American history...
The United States has historically been the largest exporter of cherries worldwide. In theUnited States, most sweet cherries are grown inWashington, California, Oregon, and NorthernMichigan. Sweet cherry cultivars include "Bing", "Brooks", "Tulare", "King" and "Rainier". In addition, the Lambert variety is grown on the eastern side of Flathead Lake in northwestern Montana. Both Oregon and Michigan provide light-colored "Royal Ann" ('Napoleon'; alternately "Queen Anne") cherries for the maraschino cherry process. Most sour (also called tart) cherries are grown in Michigan, followed by Utah, New York, and Washington. Native and non-native cherries grow well in Canada (Ontario and British Columbia). Sour cherries include Nanking and Evans Cherry. Traverse City, Michigan claims to be the "Cherry Capital of the World", hosting a National Cherry Festival and making the world's largest cherry pie.
