Sour cherry cooked in wine. Remove the sour cherry's stalk, wash it, put it into a pot, pour some wine and add some honey, cook it. Add some crushed cinnamon if you have it, but if you don't have any you can do so without. Slice a bread into cubes, fry it in butter. Put the bread cubes into the sour cherry's pot, and serve it when hot. If you're cooking for a fasting man, toast the bread and put it onto the plate, then the sour cherry; add sugar once served.
