lemon juice and white wine. Simmer over low heat for 10 to 15 minutes.
Allow the mixture to cool slightly, then transfer it to a food processor or
blender and puree. Return the puree to the saucepan, add the remaining
cherries, and cook over low heat for 2 minutes. Season with nutmeg and
cayenne pepper to taste.
