peach salsa

just a quick post to share the recipe for the peach salsa i made and canned today. maybe i will update the post later with some pictures of the deliciousness. my sister in law shared this recipe with me. it's got a bit of a kick to it, so if you want it more mild, leave out some of the jalapenos. its the perfect mixture of sweet & hot. its savoury & oh, so good. its summer & autumn in a jar. enjoy!
 
6 cups prepared peaches (blanched, peeled, pitted & chopped)
1 1/4 cups chopped red onion
4 jalepeno peppers, chopped (leave the veins & seeds in half the peppers, or less.)
1 red pepper chopped
1/2  cup loosely packed, finely chopped cilantro
1/2 cup white vinegar
2 tbls honey
1 clove garlic, finely chopped (or more. i always put more garlic in my recipes.)
1 1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper

Prepare peaches. Combine everything in large stainless steel saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Boil gently, stirring frequently for five minutes. Remove from heat. Use slotted spoon to fill jars. Top with a bit of the liquid.  Can for 15-20 minutes. Remove from canner and let sit. Open & enjoy whenever you please!
