Peach Preserve

Ingredients

• peaches
• sugar
• water

Instructions

1. Weigh out peaches and sugar in equal amounts. Rub the peaches clean. Submerge them in boiling water and remove from heat immediately, leaving them in the hot water until it cools completely. Transfer them carefully to cold water and change the water every twelve hours for twenty-four hours total. Using your fingers, carefully peel away the skin from each peach. Prepare a syrup by dissolving the sugar in water separately. Once the syrup has cooled, add the peeled peaches to it. Place over gentle heat and cook until the preserve reaches the proper consistency (point).
