Peach Preserves(From The Files Of Louella Scott Williams) - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
5 lb. peaches (reserve 1 doz. peach seeds)
7 c. sugar
1/2 c. cider vinegar
Preparation
-
Peel and cut up 5 pounds peaches, saving about a dozen peach seeds.
(The original recipe called for washing peaches thoroughly and cutting them up without peeling them, but I like to get rid of the peeling.)
Place in large cooking container with 7 cups of sugar and a half cup of cider vinegar.
Heat to low boil and cook for about 2 hours, stirring occasionally.
When clear, put in clean jars with one or two seeds per jar.
Seal with melted wax and a good lid.
