    Preparation Steps

    1

    Thoroughly wash the cherries and remove their stems.

    2

    Select a clean canning jar and place the cherries inside.

    3

    In a saucepan, bring the water, vinegar, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon stick, cloves, bay leaves, black peppercorns, and chili flakes to a boil.

    4

    Chop the hot pepper and add it to the pickling liquid. Simmer for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

    5

    After the brine has boiled, let it cool slightly so it's not too hot when poured over the cherries.

    6

    Pour the lukewarm brine over the cherries, ensuring they are completely submerged.

    7

    Seal the jar and let it sit in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours, but the longer it sits, the more flavorful it will become.

    8

    Before serving, let it sit at room temperature for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to fully develop.
