Pickled African Peaches Recipe
Yield: 1 ServingsRecipe by luhu.jp
Ingredients:
4 lbs: Slightly under ripe peaches,
3 cup: Sliced onions,
1/3 cup: Olive oil,
1 tbsp: Turmeric,
1 tbsp: Ground cumin,
2 tsp: Minced garlic,
1 tsp: Minced ginger,
1 tsp: Dried red pepper,
1/2 tsp: Pepper,
1/2 tsp: Ground cardamom,
1/2 tsp: Dry mustard,
1/4 tsp: Nutmeg,
1/4 tsp: Ground cloves.,
2 cup: White wine vinegar,
2/3 cup: Firmly packed brown sugar,
2/3 cup: White sugar,
Directions:
Havent made this for a couple of years, but its pretty tasty. Saute
onions in olive oil for five minutes or until tender. Add spices and
saute for 2 minutes. Stir in vinegar and sugars, then simmer, partly
covered for 15 minutes.
Blanch peaches slightly in boiling water for 1 minute. Drain, peel
pit and slice. Add to onion mixture and simmer just until tender.
Transfer with slotted spoon to sterilized mason jar.
Reduce syrup over high heat to 1 1/2 cups. Add slowly to jars to
almost cover fruit. Stir. Fill jars slowly with syrup, cap loosely
and cool.
Tighten caps and let stand in dark place at least 2 weeks.
I dont remember where this came from, but I suspect that it was
either Gourmet or Sunset Magazine. In my handwritten copy it also
called for 2 teaspoons ground cumin as well as one tablespoon. I
omitted it above, but I think it should have been 2 teaspoons ground
coriander.
