Best 4 Peach Jam With Amaretto Liqueur Recipes

PEACH JAM WITH AMARETTO LIQUEUR

Steps:

• Inspect 5 half-pint jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until jam is ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.
• Mix peaches with lemon juice in a large pot immediately after chopping to prevent peaches from turning brown. Place pot over medium heat.
• Mix 1/4 cup of the sugar with pectin and add it to the pot with the peaches. Stir well. Slowly bring to a full rolling boil that does not stop bubbling when stirred. Add the remaining sugar and stir well, scraping the bottom of the pot, to fully dissolve the sugar. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
• Remove from heat and stir in amaretto liqueur.
• Ladle peach jam immediately into the prepared jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a clean knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars to remove any air bubbles. Wipe rims with a moist paper towel to remove any spills. Top with lids and tightly screw on rings.
• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars 2 inches apart into the boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil, cover, and process for 10 minutes.
• Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart. Let rest for 24 hours without moving the jars. Gently press the center of each lid with a finger to ensure the lid does not move up or down. Remove the rings for storage and store in a cool, dark area.

FRESH PEACH AMARETTO JAM

Steps:

• You'll need a water bath canner with a lid and basket/lifter, a clean funnel to fill your jars, (7 ) eight ounce glass canning jars, screw bands and inner lids, plus probably another jar to put in your fridge or can in a separate water bath.
• Wash all of your equipment. Sterile equipment in a clean environment is your best friend when preserving any food.
• Wash your jars, lids and screw bands in hot soapy water. Fill your canner with hot water, put the lifter in and cover and heat on high to boiling.
• Fill a tea kettle or other pot with water and heat in case you need to add water to the canner once the jars are submerged and also for some boiling water to soften the lids.
• Put your jars in the lifter and submerge them until you are ready to fill them.
• Dry the screw bands and place the lids in a small pan. Once the kettle is boiling pour some boiling water over the lids to soften the rubber seals.
• In a large non-reactive pot mix the peaches, lemon juice and sugar. Once the sugar is dissolved add the butter which will reduce foaming.
• Heat over med-high to high heat stirring constantly until it reaches a boil that doesn't stop when you stir.
• Stir in the pectin and boil one minute.
• Add the Amaretto and stir inches Remove from the heat and skim any foam off with a metal spoon.
• Remove the jars from the canner and invert on a clean dish towel to drain.
• Turn over and fill to within 1/4″ from the rim.
• Wipe the rims with a clean hot dishcloth and put the lids on rubber seal against the clean jar rims.
• Add a screw band and tighten just until you get resistance- finger tip tight.
• Put the jars in the lifter of the canner and then submerge them. Add boiling water if needed to cover the jars by 1-2″ of water.
• Return the canner to a gentle rolling boil and process for 10 minutes if sea level. I have to add 10 minutes for altitude.
• Consult an altitude chart on your pectin package to adjust for your altitude.
• Once the process time is over turn off the heat and leave the jars submerged for another 5 minutes. Lift the lifter out of the water and transfer the jars without touching the lids to an clean towel on your counter or other heatproof surface.
• Leave for 12-24 hours for the jam to gel and the lids to seal. You should hear a soft "plonk" when each seals (it's usually within a minute or two of removing them from the water) Label and store.
• Refrigerate and use immediately any that do not seal.
