Peach Jam Recipe

Inferior peaches, and those that are not fully ripe, are best preserved

in the following manner: Pare and halve them, and take out the

stones--lay the peaches in a deep dish, and to each layer of peaches put

a layer of brown sugar. Three-quarters of a pound of sugar to a pound of

the peaches, is sufficient. Let the peaches remain until the next

day--then put them on a moderate fire, without any water, and let them

stew slowly about twenty minutes. Peaches preserved in this way, are

very nice for puffs.
