So a week ago, my dad dropped off a box of peaches
that he had picked off of a neighbors tree.
I had been wanting to make some peach jam for the
last couple of years but never got around to it. So the
opportunity arised for me to be able to put some up.
Kimberly came up to help out and of course I had my
buddy who was all eager to help out also.
We put up the camp chef out on the deck to put the canner
on. The pot is bigger than the burners on my ceramic stove top
and it gave us more room on the stove to cook the peach jam.
The camp chef cooks alot hotter than the regular stove, so I didn't
want to burn the peach jam mixture.
We just followed the directions that came inside the pectin
box.
We just used 4 Cups peaches (processed by food processor)
5 1/2 Cups sugar
2 Tablespoons lemon juice
l box of pectin
Landon helping put up peach jam
Landon picking up a lid with the jar picker up
tool (lol...can't think whats its called, brain cramp...)
Landon holding the lid with the sissor tool.
I tried to hold it like he did on the edge of the lid
and I couldn't do it, so how does a 2 1/2 yr old do it?
YUMMY !!! PEACH JAM
10 pints and 30 half pints
It always makes you feel good to make something
and see the reward that you can enjoy all year long.
