Got some peaches and made us some jam
PEACH JAM RECIPE
about 24 peaches
9 cups sugar
2 packages pectin (clear-gel or sure gel)
Blanch peaches in boiling water for a couple minutes, immediately put into cold ice water to help slip the skins off, slice and take out pit, chop into pieces.
Add all peaches into stock pot and bring to slow boil, about 20 minutes to cook peaches and break them down, I "smoosh" them with a tater masher. You will notice the juices start to flow in the pot.
Add your sugar and pectin and stir to incorporate the sugar and pectin with peaches, bring to a full rolling boil, boil 1 minute.
Remove from heat, ladle into sterilized half pint/jelly jars.
Wipe rims, add seal and ring, hand tighten.
Process in boiling water bath for 10 minutes.
Set out to cool and listen for them to seal "pop".
Label them and you are all set.
recipe yields about 16 half pint/jelly jars
