Cherry Leaves

6-8 oz cherry leaves (pick as soon as possible from the time the blossoms drop)
4 tablespoons salt

Wash leaves. Drain gently in strainer. Place evenly in a steamer
and steam for 2-3 minutes.

Soak leaves in cold water for a moment and place in strainer to
drain. Put leaves in a container and sprinkle salt. Place a weight
