Preserving the Harvest
What to put it on? Try everything. Slather it on grilled chicken or put a dollop on a bit of creamy brie or a hard cheddar. It's a perfect combo of sweet, savory, and spicy. 1 qt diced peaches 1 cup brown sugar 4 cups white sugar 1 tablespoon lemon juice 5 Habanero peppers, seeded and veins removed 2 Tablespoons finely diced fresh basil 4 Tablespoons fruit pectin (roughly half a pack of liquid pectin) Brandy or whiskey (optional) Combine peaches, sugar, lemon in a pot. Start warming on medium heat, making sure sugar thoroughly dissolves. Finely dice the habaneros and basil and stir to add. Add pectin and a splash of brandy or whiskey (approximately a half a shot). Cook for 5 minutes. To process, add to sterilized jars leaving 1/4" headspace and boil for 10 minutes in a hot water canner.
