Categories     Fruit

Time 1h30m

Yield 1 Batch

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 lbs peaches, peeled
1 cup golden raisin
3/4 cup water, more if needed
1 1/2 tablespoons finely grated orange zest
2 tablespoons strained fresh lemon juice
3 cups sugar
1/2 cup pecan halves or 1/2 cup pecan pieces
3 tablespoons amaretto liqueur

Steps:

  • In a heavy, non-reactive saucepot combine raisins and water and let raisins soak until they plump.
  • Cut peaches into halves or quarters and combine them with the plumped raisins and water.
  • Add zest and heat mixture to simmering until very tender, about 15 minutes.
  • Stir in orange and lemon juices and return to a boil.
  • Add sugar and cook over medium heat, stirring very frequently with a flat bottom wooden spoon, until thick, about 30 minutes.
  • Test Mixture: Put a spoonful on a chilled saucer and let it cool; when saucer is held on edge, the surface of the jam should wrinkle.
  • Add the pecans and cook, stirring, about 5 minutes longer.
  • Remove from heat and stir in the Amaretto.
  • Ladle into hot, clean canning jars, leaving 1/4 inch head space.
  • Seal with new two-piece lids according to manufacturer's directions and process for 10 minutes in a boiling water bath.
  • Cool, label, and store.
  • Best if allowed to mellow in the jars for two weeks before serving.
  • Makes great holiday gifts.

WARM PEAR AND BRIE TARTLETS

These make a simple, delicious and elegant appetizer from Secrets from a Caterer's Kitchen by Nicole Aloni. You can purchase premade tartlets or use a recipe found on this site. I like Anme's Recipe #238142 for these. The amounts listed reflect what I used for a recent party, but they can be easily adjusted to suit your needs and taste.
