Directions
Spiced Peach and Blueberry Jam,I got this recipe from The Woman’s Day Encyclopedia of Cooking, Vol. 8. A great way to use fresh peaches!,Just made this jam and it’s quite good however there are a few changes I would suggest;
Please note the default receipe makes a lot of jam, you may want to scale it back by 1/3 or so.
Also since it does not use pectin it is not a thick stand on it’s own jam, it’s more like real jam. Great for morning toast, not PBJ’s.
I would suggest using more peaches and less blueberry as the blueberry seems to overpower the peach flavor a bit too much. I may even go so far to just use 1/2 the amount of the blueberries and just make up for the reducing of the blueberries by adding more peach.
I also added real vanilla bean to mine, one bean, split scrapped and added. Yummy!
