Peach ginger jam
Last year I had to much peaches to eat in a week.
So what to do whith them. Well I was making jam anyway. So decided on peach jam. It tasted just to flat.so that was no solution. Tried it whith mint, some what better, but still not the YESS feeling. than 10 % fruit weight candied ginger . Bingo. absolutely worth a try. 1000 gram peach 1000 gram sugar 100 gram candied ginger grated 50 gram pectin 10 gram ctiric acid the latter 2 can be substituted whith sure gel or something like that. and part of the sugar can be replaced with ginger syrup Jummy

I used 1 tablespoon of fresh grated ginger, but that was barely "there." I thought 2 tablespoons of fresh grated ginger was better. But I got plenty candied ginger to try also! Edrena

Edrena I've added diced candied ginger to peach scones when I was baking at The Night Kitchen, with very good results.

Not so well with cherries, IMO. Better with the almond-like stone fruits - which not surprisingly do well with almond extract.

Better with the almond-like stone fruits - which not surprisingly do well with almond extract. Think I'll finish off the apricot puree later as an apricot-ginger-almond jam. I've got a bag of almonds quietly aging on the shelf.... Heh. Cherry-almond is a good combo. B/

And y'day I put up 10 half-pints of apricot-ginger-almond, since the bottle of almond syrup (Torani brand) had its top knocked off some time ago. I thought the ginger wasn't coming through so I bolstered it with white pepper. B/

Cherries and almonds are good - I don't like cherry stuff with almond flavoring. Could it have been that it was something in an artificial almond flavoring that I found clashed with the cherries? Quite possible. B/

Great stuff. Didn't follow your recipe exactly, but did add a couple tablespoons chopped candied ginger and a couple tablespoons of freshly grated ginger. Thank you for posting the particulars of what you did. -- -Barb, www.jamlady.eboard.com An update on 7/22/04.
