Step 1
Wash the peaches in cold water; if the skin is too fuzzy, you can remove it by placing the peaches in boiling water.

Step 3
By the way, firm peaches work best; with overripe ones the result may not turn out very well.

Step 6
Place the jars in a pot of water, cover the pot with a lid, and bring to a boil. The peach will release its juice. In total, the jam cooks for 2–2.5 hours. At the end of cooking, add a little citric acid to each jar (on the tip of a knife). Seal the finished jam with lids and let it cool.
