This recipe uses peaches, oranges, and maraschino cherries. Really old recipe, close to a marmalade. They used a food chopper with this but I think a food processor would be faster. No jar amounts were given so I am guessing. Ingredients:
18 peaches |
5 oranges |
8 cups sugar |
1 (6 ounce) bottle maraschino cherries |
Directions:
1. Run peaches through a chopper. I think that you would blanch, peel and pit the peaches before running them through chopper.
2. 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).
3. Add cherry juice to the peaches, oranges, and sugar.
4. Cook, stirring constantly, I am guessing this will burn easily.
5. Cook until thick.
6. When nearly done, add chopped cherries.
7. Bring to a boil.
8. Put in small jar and cover with paraffin wax (I said this was old recipe).
9. Another recipe had you water bathing for 10 minutes to seal; check Ball book.
