Does Anyone Make Peach Freezer Jam ?
Comments (5)This is is probably in the certo box with their recipes. I keep one of those recipes sheets in my recipe box because they change the recipes every so often and you may find your favorite disappears. NO COOK FREEZER PEACH JAM 2 3/4 c. peaches, chopped 2 Certo fruit pectin pouches 6 1/2 c. (2 lb. 14 oz.) sugar 1/3 c. lemon juice Wash, rinse with boiling water and drain a couple of 1 to 2 cup rigid plastic containers with tight fitting lids. Have fruit at room temperature and wash and drain well. Peel and pit peaches and chop into five pieces. Measure 2 3/4 cups of chopped peaches into a large bowl. Add 6 1/2 cups of sugar to fruit and stir thoroughly until sugar has dissolved. Let stand 10 minutes. Empty Certo pouches into a small bowl and ad 1/3 cup of lemon juice. Stir pectin and lemon juice mix into fruit. Continue stirring 3 minutes (a few sugar crystals will remain). Ladle quickly into prepared containers, filling to within 1/2 inch of tops. Wipe any spills from containers and cover at once with lids. Let stand at room temperature 24 hours. Store in freezer. Small amounts of unfrozen jam may be covered and stored in the refrigerator up to 3 weeks....See MoreFreezing Peaches Questions
Comments (8)Well, I freeze peaches a lot, as I get them from my relatives in Georgia and South Carolina. What I do is peel and slice them, remove the seeds, and toss them with a combination of sugar and Fruit Fresh (never used Pomona Pectin. Never heard of it.). I like the Fruit Fresh because they then don't turn brown when defrosted. I freeze them in ziplocs and write the contents on each (2 c peaches and 1/2 cup sugar, for example). Then when I defrost them for later use, I either eat them that way, or use them in recipes but then I detract from the recipe the amount of sugar that I put in the frozen ones. It always seems to work and I never have any trouble with jams/jellies setting up afterwards. Hope this helps. And thanks for reminding me... it's peach time! I've made lots of peach recipes, but never Peach Jalapeno Jelly. If you don't mind, could you share the recipe? Thanks....See MorePeach Raspbery jam questions
Comments (6)Agreed with the others, the lemon juice is required. So far, my favorite peach jam that I've done is one that I came up with using some reduced chardonnay, Chambord (French black-raspberry liqueur) and Pomona's pectin so I can do a lower sugar, as our CO peaches are very sweet. The alcohol flavors don't come across in major amounts, but intensify the total flavor of the jam. Chambord is a big investment for occasional use, but I've found it to be worth my while, as it's my favorite for adding to jams/sorbets. I found a half sized bottle at my local Target for $15 that has lasted me for well over a year now. If you like the flavor of Amaretto, I would say that it would go well with either the peach/rasp or your spiced peach. I use liqueur in most of my jams, not necessarily for the alcohol's flavor, but find that it deepens the flavor as a whole. I generally add 1-2 Tbsp for a batch that makes 4-6 half-pints....See MoreLooking for Habanero Peach jam recipe
Comments (3)I have made that recipe and it is good, but I also just make a basic peach jam recipe and then add chopped hot chile's to taste. Just use the "peach" recipe basic recipe on your pectin or one off harvest forum then add peppers to taste before or after adding pectin (depending on the pectin you use). kendra kendra...See MoreKatieC
