  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro chopped

  • 1 small box of fruit pectin crystals 49gram
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar

Instructions

  • Wash jars and lids in soapy water. Rinse well. Dry bands and set aside.  Place jars and lids in water and allow to simmer (not boil) until ready to use.
  • In a large saucepan, combine peaches, onion, pepper, cilantro, garlic, cumin, vinegar, and lime zest..
  • Mix pectin with 1/4 sugar and add to your peach mixture. Bring to a boil and then add the remaining 1 1/2 cups of sugar. Boil for 1 minute stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
  • Pour into prepared pint jars, leaving 1/4 inch air space. Wipe the rim and threads of the jar with a clean damp cloth. Place lid and rings on jars, just until resistance is met.
  • Place jars in a large pot and cover them with water 1-2" over jars.  Boil for 15 minutes.
  • Carefully remove jars and allow them to cool completely
  • After the jars have completely cooled check for proper seal. Press on the center of the lid. It should be firm, pulled down, and will not flex. Tighten rings.
