Spiced and pickled peaches are a classic southern treat that can be combined with both savory and sweet foods. Serve them alongside some vanilla ice cream on a hot summer day, top a sandwich with them, or cut them into bite-sized pieces and toss them into a refreshing salad. Either way, the results will be delicious!
Ingredients for Pickled Peaches:
Method of preparing the Pickled Peaches:
-
Distribute the cinnamon, cloves, ginger, and peppercorns among 6 sterile jars. Add the peaches to each jar.
-
In a pot, combine the water, vinegar, and sugar and bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. Divide the liquid among the jars, leaving a 1/2-inch space at the top of the jar.
-
Wipe down the rim of each jar. Seal the jars with lids and rings.
-
Simmer in a hot water bath for 10 minutes to finish the sealing process. Then remove the jars and let them cool. Store for 12 months.
Chef's Tip:
The duration of boiling while canning depends on the altitude:
For altitudes of 1,000 feet or less, it's 10 minutes. For 3,000 ft, add another 5 minutes, 6,000 ft - 10 more minutes; 8,000 ft - 15 more minutes; 10,000 ft - 20 more minutes.
