Surely you have tried peach preparations (compotes, jams) more than once. Have you ever tried peach jam? It is very tasty, aromatic, velvety, and it will not be difficult to prepare it.

What kind of peaches to take for jam? Of course, ripe and even overripe. The main thing is that they are not spoiled. The color of the finished jam depends on the type of peach. I took peaches with red skin, so the color is rather dark - amber. But if you take yellow peaches, the color will be yellow or light orange. These jams taste the same, although maybe if you try two types at once, you will feel some difference.

If you have a peach tree in your garden, you are lucky. Don't miss the opportunity to eat your fill and prepare these wonderful fruits. Let's find out how to make peach jam.

Make a circular cut in the fruit. Take it with both hands and twist it. You will hear a characteristic crackling sound and the peach will split in two. The bone from the second lobule can be easily pulled out by prying it with a knife.
