Best 6 Peach Conserve With Rum Recipes

PEACH PRESERVES

Steps:

• Crush 1 cup chopped peaches in the bottom of a large saucepan. Add remaining peaches, and set pan over medium-low heat. Bring to a low boil, and cook for about 20 minutes or until peaches become liquid (my family likes a few bits of peach left) .
• Pour peaches into a bowl, and then measure 6 cups back into the pan. Add sugar, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Gradually stir in dry pectin, and boil for 1 minute.
• Remove from heat after 1 minute, and transfer to sterilized jars. Process in hot water bath canner for 10 minutes. Let cool, and place on shelf.

PEACH CONSERVE WITH RUM

Steps:

• Combine orange peel and pulp with just enough water to cover in a small saucepan.
• Cook until peel is tender; set aside.
• Put opened container of rum in hot water; set aside.
• Combine reserved orange mixture with peaches, pineapple, cherries and lime juice in a large saucepot.
• Add sugar and spices, stirring until sugar dissolves.
• Cook almost to gelling point.
• As mixture thickens, stir frequently to prevent sticking.
• Remove from heat.
• Stir in hot rum.
• Ladle hot conserve into hot sterilized jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace.
• Adjust two-piece caps.
• Process 15 minutes in a boiling-water canner.
• Remove from boiling-water.
• Cover with a dry towel.
• Allow to stand until caps seal and jars cool.

PEACH JAM WITH BROWN SUGAR AND RUM

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine peaches with the brown sugar, lemon juice and about half of the rum, stirring to mix. Cover and let stand at room temperature six hours or overnight.
• Wash jars and lids in hot, soapy water. Sterilize jars for 10 minutes in a boiling-water bath, then leave in hot water until ready to fill. Prepare lids according to manufacturer's directions.
• Pour the fruit mixture into a large saucepan or dutch oven. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cover the pan, reduce heat and cook the mixture until the peach chunks begin to look translucent, 15 to 20 minutes; stir occasionally to prevent sticking. If the jam becomes too thick and threatens to scorch before the fruit is done, add 2 to 3 tablespoons of water. Add the granulated sugar, increase heat to medium-high and cook rapidly, stirring almost constantly, until a spoonful placed on a chilled saucer and refrigerated for a few minutes wrinkles instead of runs when the saucer is tilted. (Take jam off the heat while doing this. If using a candy thermometer, this should happen at about 220 degrees.) Add remaining rum and stir the jam (it will boil up when you add the rum) for 2 minutes over the heat.
• Ladle boiling-hot jam into hot, prepared jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Top with lids and process for 15 minutes in a boiling-water bath. Cool jars completely on a dish towel before labeling and storing.

GRANDMA'S SPICED PEACH PRESERVES

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add peaches. Cook until peach skin begins to split, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain and allow to cool slightly. Peel, pit, and quarter peaches and transfer to a large pot. Mash peaches with a potato masher and stir in sugar, cinnamon, and cloves.
• Cook and stir on low heat until desired consistency, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
• Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack peach preserves into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.
• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary to bring the water level to at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for 10 minutes.
• Remove the jars from the stockpot and cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all).

ORANGE PEACH CONSERVE

Steps:

• Wash and dry the oranges and lemon. Quarter them and remove seeds and thick membranes (but do not peel). Put through a food chopper, using the coarse blade. Peel and pit the peaches and mash slightly with a pastry blender or fork.
• Place all the ingredients except the pecans in a large kettle over medium heat. Bring to a boil to dissolve sugar, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, until mixture measures 221 degrees on a candy thermometer or falls in sheets from a spoon. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking, and crush any large pieces of peach.
• Remove from heat and stir in the pecans. Carefully ladle conserve into hot, sterilized jars, leaving 1/4-inch head space. Wipe excess conserve from inside and outside rims, then seal.

PEACH FLAMBE WITH RUM

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large saucepan and mix in the sugar. Add the peaches and cook over high heat until the peach wedges soften and begin to render juice and the juices begin to thicken and caramelize, about 5 to 6 minutes. Add the lemon juice and peach preserves and cook an additional 2 to 3 minutes.
• In your kitchen or at the table, add the rum and ignite, burning the alcohol for about 1 minute. Divide the dessert among six serving dishes and serve as is or with a scoop of ice cream in the center.
