PEACH-CHILE JAM

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cut a small X in the bottom of each peach; add to the boiling water for 1 minute. Transfer to a bowl of ice water to cool; drain and peel off the skins with a paring knife. (Or for harder peaches, remove skins with a vegetable peeler.)
• Chop the peaches. Combine with the sugar, salt and chile in a medium saucepan. Toss and let stand until the sugar dissolves and the liquid is syrupy, 10 to 20 minutes.
• Add the syrup to the pan and bring to a rapid simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring frequently and skimming off any foam, until the peaches soften and the juices thicken, about 15 minutes. (Gently mash any large peach chunks.)

PEACH JAM

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil. Put peaches in the boiling water for just 1 minute or under. Take them out with a slotted spoon and place them in cold water. Peel and slice peaches. Discard peach pits. Put peaches into a large (wide-open) heavy bottom pot and add the sugar. Bring to a boil. Continue to boil mixture and stir frequently. Mixture will thicken in approximately 45 minutes to an hour. As mixture thicken, you must stir more frequently to ensure that it does not stick to the bottom of the pot. To test whether the jam is ready, place a cold metal spoon in the mixture and tilt. The jam should form a single stream.

PEACH ORANGE JAM

Steps:

• Run peaches through a chopper. I think that you would blanch, peel and pit the peaches before running them through chopper.
• Run all oranges through chopper, using rind of one orange. (just the zest; the whole rind will make it bitter; other recipes are using zest from all the oranges; you judge).
• Add cherry juice to the peaches, oranges, and sugar.
• Cook, stirring constantly, I am guessing this will burn easily.
• Cook until thick.
• When nearly done, add chopped cherries.
• Bring to a boil.
• Put in small jar and cover with paraffin wax (I said this was old recipe).
• Another recipe had you water bathing for 10 minutes to seal; check Ball book.
