Cooking steps

1. Mix frozen cherries with a pinch of salt, 1/4 cup of sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and port wine in a heavy two-liter pot. Place over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is completely dissolved (about 3 minutes).

   • Frozen cherries: 3 glasss
   • Salt: 0.1 teaspoon
   • Sugar: 0.3 glass
   • Cornstarch: 2 teaspoons
   • Ground cinnamon: 0.3 teaspoon
   • Red port wine: 0.3 glass

2. Pour the cherry mixture into a glass or ceramic baking dish (about 23x23 cm) or into small portion molds.

3. Mix flour, 2 teaspoons of sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Add one and a half tablespoons of cold butter and knead the mixture thoroughly by hand or with a blender. The butter should be fully absorbed.

   Required ingredients:

   • Wheat flour: 0.8 glass
   • Sugar: 0.3 glass
   • Soda: 0.3 teaspoon
   • Baking powder: 0.3 teaspoon
   • Salt: 0.1 teaspoon

4. Add buttermilk to the flour mixture and lightly beat with a fork.

   Required ingredients:

   • Buttermilk: 0.3 glass

5. Spoon the dough onto the cherry mixture. If using one large baking dish, the dough should be arranged to form 4 symmetrical mounds of equal size.

6. Bake on the middle rack in an oven preheated to 210 degrees until the dough turns golden. (If using one large baking dish, keep the cobbler in the oven for about 25 minutes.)

7. Before serving, let it cool slightly, but keep the cobbler warm. You can place a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the plates.
