Canned Peaches

Ingredients:
water, bottled, generic
salt, table
vinegar, distilled
peaches, yellow, raw
water, bottled, generic
sugars, granulated

Directions:
Mix together 1 gallon of water, salt and vinegar.
This mixture will be used to soak peaches in to prevent them turning brown.
Peel peaches, or a little trick I do is put them in boiling water for 30-45 seconds and then into cold water.
The skin slips right off this way.
Once all peeled, start slicing the peaches.
If the fruit close to the pit is quite dark, I trim that away.
After you have all your peaches sliced, rinse them off and start filling your sterilized jars.
Syrup: Bring to a soft boil the 4 cups of water and sugar.
Once the liquid is at a boil, pour into fruit-filled jars until a 1/2 inch is left for airway.
This makes 5-1/2 cups of syrup so what I do is just keep making more as I need it.
Seal the jars with sterilized lids.
Process in your canner for 30 minutes.
(To process is to place fruit-filled jars into boiling water, with water covering the jars.
Boil for 30 minutes.)
A box of 54 peaches makes approximately 15 quarts of peaches.
This will give you an idea of how much the recipe will make.
