Default How to unglue something without wrecking the wood

This post is sort of related to the one about carpenters glue solvent. I
made a mistake gluing two pieces of cherry with yellow glue. My first
instinct is to use water to soften the glue but I wonder if I will wreck the
wood doing that.

What is your advice?

TIA.

I don't think it would ruin the wood.
You'd probably have to let it air dry for quite a while.
If you can submerge it steam, that may work.
