PEACH ORANGE JAM

Steps:

• Cut peaches in small pieces, leaving skins on.
• Squeeze juice from oranges & add to peaches.
• Grind oranges (both pulp & rind) in a food processor. Add to peaches.
• Measure the total amount of fruit and add an equal amount of sugar.
• Cook over "medium" heat until the mixture starts to thicken. This will probably take 1 - 1 1/2 hours.

PEACH ORANGE JAM

Steps:

• Run peaches through a chopper. I think that you would blanch, peel and pit the peaches before running them through chopper.
• Run all oranges through chopper, using rind of one orange. (just the zest; the whole rind will make it bitter; other recipes are using zest from all the oranges; you judge).
• Add cherry juice to the peaches, oranges, and sugar.
• Cook, stirring constantly, I am guessing this will burn easily.
• Cook until thick.
• When nearly done, add chopped cherries.
• Bring to a boil.
• Put in small jar and cover with paraffin wax (I said this was old recipe).
• Another recipe had you water bathing for 10 minutes to seal; check Ball book.
