  • Servings: Makes about 4 pints

Ingredients:

Quantity Ingredient
6 Red Onions
1 1/4 Fresh Cilantro
4 Peaches
1 White Vinegar
1/2 Honey
1/2 Garlic
2 Ground Cumin
1 Cayenne Pepper

Directions:

  1. Blanch, Peel, Pit, and Chop Peaches:

    • Begin by blanching the peaches to easily peel off the skin. Pit them and chop finely until you have 6 cups of chopped peaches.
  2. Combine Ingredients:

    • In a large stainless steel or enamel saucepan, mix together the chopped peaches, red onions, peppers, cilantro, white vinegar, honey, minced garlic, ground cumin, and cayenne pepper.
  3. Bring to a Boil:

    • Place the saucepan on medium heat and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly. This helps meld all the flavors together.
  4. Simmer Gently:

    • Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the salsa simmer gently. Stir frequently to prevent sticking, and let it cook for about 5 minutes.
  5. Bottle (Optional):

    • If you plan to store your salsa, now’s the time to prepare your jars. Ladle the hot salsa into clean, sterilized pint jars, leaving about 1/2 inch headspace. Seal with lids.
  6. Processing (Optional):

    • If you’re canning the salsa for longer storage, process the jars in a boiling water bath. Make sure the jars are covered by at least 1 inch of water and process for an additional 10 minutes.
  7. Cool and Serve:

    • Once done, remove the jars from the water bath and let them cool on a kitchen towel. As the salsa cools, you’ll hear the satisfying pop of the lids sealing. Store in a cool, dark place for up to a year.
  8. Enjoy Your Peach Salsa!

    • This recipe makes approximately 4 pints of delicious, tangy peach salsa. Perfect for dipping with chips, spooning over grilled meats, or even as a topping for tacos and salads. ๐ŸŒฎ๐Ÿฅ—
