Peach Orange Jam

Total Time: 8 hrs Preparation Time: 4 hrs Cook Time: 4 hrs

Ingredients

• 18 peaches
• 5 oranges
• 8 cups sugar
• 1 (6 ounce) bottle maraschino cherries

Recipe

• 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.
