I've been baffled by a number of cooking things over here too - and pretty much every trip to the supermarket results in a wail of 'they don't sell X over here?!' I'm finding it ok if I just follow a US recipe, it's when I convert something that's originally from the UK that I have trouble. These look pretty yummy though, so seeing as I do in fact have some 'red cherries' in the cupboard I might give them a go. I also saw 'green cherries' in the shop too - very strange.

Another question for you - is it just me not looking very well, or is it in fact very difficult to find a normal sausage (your typical bangers and mash type one) that's not make of turkey? For some reason, I don't fancy a poultry sausage...
