Receta Cherries Jubilee for Adults
I made this about 4 decades ago and have never found a comparable one since. I thought I got it from "Joy of Cooking," but it isn't in the edition I now have. I've recreated it. I have a Lapin Cherry tree and had to find something to do with the 8 1/2 gallon crop this year. As I said I have Lapin Cherries, however, Bings are the ones to use for this recipe to get the fullest flavor of this exquisite recipe. It is a matter of taste, however, so if you want to use tart cherries with this recipe it is still better than other more simple recipes.

- Combine Corn Starch with Port Wine until liquid in small bowl. Set aside.
- Combine Bing Cherries including cherry juice with Lemon juice and zest in sauce pan. Bring to boil.
- Slowly add Port Wine with Corn Starch mixture until Bing Cherry mixture is translucent and thick by returning to a boil. (Boiling mixture is key to getting corn starch to work properly.)
- Sprinkle on Toasted Almond Slivers.
- Pour Brandy into mixture and set aflame. (Be sure to measure Brandy. Donât make mistake like I did of just pouring Brandy into mixture. It may bring flames too high and too long. Can be a little frightening.)
- Spoon over good Vanilla Ice Cream while flaming. (Itâs a nice effect, so obviously for special company.)
