Goodness in a Jar

Can you believe it's already July....OMG!
These are peaches from our local farmers market. They are sweet & I can't stay away from them. 
I decided to pickle this batch because my Cowboy said he remembered is mom's pickled peaches from childhood. That melted my heart so off to the old Internet to find a good recipe, I went. There were several to choose from and it took me a couple of days to gather the necessary ingredients before diving in. The following are what I used. There are tons of recipes out there, you just have to choose for yourself.
  • White vinegar
  • Sugar
  • Pickling spices in a bag
  • Cinnamon sticks
  • Whole Cloves
  • Fruit Fresh
  • Mason Jars


I placed a cinnamon stick & a few cloves in each jar before processing them. Let me just say that I save everything I can because you never know what you'll need or can use in another recipe.
The syrup leftover from the canning is divine. I can't tell you how delicious it taste, so of course it went in the frig to be use in a meat dish.....AKA.....pour a cup of it over a ham before baking or over a pork roast and bake or a fourth cup in a cobbler before baking.....I need to stop cause I'm getting hungry.
I hope everyone has a great Fourth of July. I'm already planning for ribs, roasted corn on the cob, potato salad and apple pie (with some of that peach syrup baked in)....oh, and cracker pie. Yes you read it correctly.
Take care!!!

I've never heard of pickled peaches. Our peaches should be ripe next week so I may have to give them a try.
