  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup chopped red bell pepper
  • 1 cup apple cider vinegar (5% acidity)
  • 1/2 cup chopped red onion

Instructions

  • Toss everything except the cilantro in a 6-quart (6-liter) stainless steel or enameled Dutch oven. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the cilantro.
  • Ladle the hot peach jam into the still-hot sterilized jars, leaving 1/2-inch (1-cm) headspace at the top of each jar. Remove any air bubbles by stirring the salsa. Working with a single jar at a time, wipe the jar rim, center the lid on the jar, apply the band, and tighten. Repeat until all the jars are filled.
  • Process the jars in a hot water bath for 15 minutes following the manufacturer's instructions. Turn off the heat, remove the lid from the pot, and let the jars stand for 5 minutes. Remove the jars from the pot and let cool. The peach salsa will keep, unopened, for up to several months. Once opened, keep the peach salsa in the refrigerator and use within a week.
