Ingredients:
3 cups finely chopped, peeled peaches |
3 cups finely chopped cantaloupe |
4 1/2 cups sugar |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
1/3 cup coarsely chopped blanched almonds |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1/4 teaspoon grated orange rind |
Directions:
1. Combine peaches and cantaloupe in a flat-bottomed kettle; bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 10 minutes. Stir in sugar and lemon juice. Return to a boil; boil 12 minutes or until mixture thickens, stirring frequently. Add remaining ingredients. Boil, stirring constantly, until mixture registers 220° on a candy thermometer or until mixture sheets from a cold metal spoon. Remove from heat; skim off foam. 2. Ladle conserve into hot sterilized jars, leaving 1/4-inch head space. Cover with metal lids, and screw bands tight. Process in boiling-water bath 15 minutes. |
