Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups (chopped) ripe tomatoes
- 4 cups (peeled, pitted, and chopped) ripe peaches
- 3 cups granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon (grated) fresh ginger
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
Prepare the tomatoes by blanching them in boiling water for 30 seconds, then transferring them to an ice water bath. Remove the skins and chop the tomatoes into small pieces.
Peel, pit, and chop the peaches into small pieces. You can blanch the peaches if needed to make peeling easier.
In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, combine the chopped tomatoes, peaches, sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice, ginger, and cinnamon.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly to dissolve the sugar.
Reduce the heat to medium and let the mixture simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 50-60 minutes or until it thickens to a marmalade consistency. Skim off any foam that forms on the surface.
To test if the marmalade is ready, place a small spoonful on a chilled plate. If it holds its shape and is not runny, it is done. If it spreads, continue cooking for a few more minutes and test again.
Once the marmalade is ready, remove the pot from heat and let it cool slightly.
Transfer the marmalade into sterilized jars, leaving about 1/4 inch of space at the top. Seal the jars tightly and process them in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes if planning to store long-term.
Let the jars cool to room temperature. Check that the lids are sealed, then store the marmalade in a cool, dark place or refrigerate and consume within a few weeks.
