"The tradition of Italian cooking is that of the matriarch. This is the cooking of grandma. She didn't waste time thinking too much about the celery. She got the best celery she could and then she dealt with it."--Mario Batali

Ingredients:  
2 cups unbleached all purpose flour (or GF flour mix)
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 Tbs. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt

Directions:
Directions:
Preheat oven to 425º Adjust rack to center of oven. Line 1 or 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

Sift together four, soda and baking powder into a large bowl.

Add salt, 2/3 cup sugar and the cornmeal. Stir with a wooden spoon until combined.

Add butter and cut with a pastry cutter (or 2 knives) until it is the size of small peas. (Food processor works fine for this, too.) Mix in cherries.

Make a well in the center; add buttermilk; mix briefly until ingredients just come together. Some loose flour will remain at bottom of bowl. Let the batter stand for 5 minutes.

Gently shape the dough into balls about 2-1/4" and place on prepared pans about 2" apart. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup sugar. They will look rustic. This is good.

Reduce heat to 375º and bake for 20-25 minutes.
