I was just telling a girlfriend today about a mess my mom used to make that we'll make after we go peach-picking in a couple of weeks, if my broken wrist then permits. This goes with fried chicken. I use chicken breast filets (no bones). Make the chicken and set it aside or keep it warm in the oven. While the chicken is cooking, heat up a cup or so of orange juice. Throw together a bunch of chopped up and partially mashed ripe peaches and tomatoes; set aside. Saute some sliced green peppers and onions in a bit of olive oil until the onions are translucent and starting to brown a little. Dump in the peach/tomato mixture and the hot OJ. Stir to heat through and reduce the OJ by about half. Add the fried chicken and serve over rice. Sometimes, Mom would add pineapple chunks, too, cooking them with the green peppers & onions. Once or twice, my dad would grill all the ingredients except the OJ and rice outside, like shish kabobs. Mom woulkd add the pieces to reduced OJ and serve over rice. Either way, very yummy. Of course, you'll want to add whatever spices you'd like. |

I purchased my peaches yesterday and today I have a crock pot bubbling away with peach butter, while I am canning pickled peaches, peach pie filling, canned peaches (which I will eat with raisin toast as a midnight snack this winter), making peach/pineapple preserves, and will now attempt peach salsa. That is a new one for me. It's going to be a very busy day - Wish me luck and the strenghth to get it all done. |

Just finished making 1/2 bushel of peaches into Shirley's peach butter recipe - it is delicious! I'm so excited! I'm sitting here listening to that sweet sound of lids popping as they seal! Thanks, Shirley! |

Susan - I am so glad you like the recipe. I look forward to doing mine each year. I also tried something new this year. I am making peach brandy. It will take several weeks and will let you know if it turns out. It's my first attempt at something like this. |

Shirley, Please let us know how it goes! When I got my peaches at the farmers market they were $17 1/2 bushel, but she told me she had a 1/2 bushel of overripe for $7 - needless to say that is what I got! anyway, she said another lady had just bought some of the overripe to make peach schnapps...never heard of anyone making schnapps or brandy so I'm interested in how yours turns out! |

okay....I'm doing my first ever canning with peaches. Has anyone tried the microwave recipe for peach jam from the Ball Blue Book of canning and preserving or any "microwave" jam recipe for that matter?

Ok...getting ready to put them in the water bath....I tasted and so far pretty yummy....it said 4 pints but I got 5 and 1/2...the 1/2 pint is in the frig for MOI! I need to take pictures as I'm sure this must be a badge for the sisterhood somewhere? I have to take notes and go back to store for more pectin and jars! I'm lovin' this...what a sense of accomplishment! And I have more to process so I shold get 8-10 jars of jam out of this and just think...the Farmer's Market is tomorrow again! Wha-Hoo!

Hello everyone - just checking in and wanted to let you know, we have one week to go on the brandy. It sure is smelling good and I have high hopes. I guess I have better start gathering bottles and corks. This is supposed to make 2-1/2 gallons. Of course, I won't get to keep it all because I made the mistake of telling my daughter-in-law and a couple of other people. Small bottles will make great gifts if it is as good as it smells. I am already imagining how it will be as a flambe' over vanilla ice cream. |

Peach ice cream! It's the only excuse you need for making your own :-) |
