Peach Jam Without Syrup
Description
Homemade preserves keep for a long time. This is a simple recipe for peach jam without syrup. If the skins don’t peel off easily, put the fruit in a bowl, cover with boiling water, and leave for 3–4 minutes. Then drain the boiling water and cover with cold water for 3–4 minutes. After that, the skins will come off easily. You shouldn’t have any trouble with the rest. Good luck. Store in a cool, dark place.
