Cherry pie is an American classic — Cherries provide the sweet-tart filling that thickens beautifully. The substitute must hold up to baking.
Deep flavor, chop small for baking
Tarter; reduce lemon juice in recipe
Milder flavor; halve for similar size
Dark and jammy; seeds add texture
Sweet-tart, halved for salads
Pit and halve, great in cobblers and pies
Seedless grapes work raw in salads; too watery for baking, won't hold up in cooked fillings
For dried cherries, use dried cranberries
Sweeter and less tart than cherries; holds shape well in pies and compotes but lacks cherry's almond undertone
