A is for Atlanta!
About a month ago, we found some late season peaches at a local farmers market. This one was air-brushed by nature. Pretty? Yes! Tasty? Yes. Texture? ..ehh. So, it was time for some jam. Now, it’s gone. And, we’ll have to buy some frozen peaches to make another batch. We’re not ready to say goodbye to peaches for the year.
Delicious warm or cold, this tasty jam works as a condiment, grill sauce, and sandwich spread.
Peach Jalapeno Jam
makes over 5 cups
2 peaches, well-washed, pits removed
1 large green apple, well-washed and cored
juice of one lemon
2 cups sugar
3-5 jalapenos, seeded and finely diced
1 clove of garlic, finely minced
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
In a powerful blender, liquify peaches, apple and lemon juice. Pour into large saucepan. Add sugar, diced jalapenos, garlic, red pepper flakes and sea salt. Bring to a simmer. Simmer gently for 15-20 minutes.
Use immediately. We love it with grilled chicken. Refrigerate remaining jam.
