How to Make Grand Champion Peach Jam
- Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil.
- Carefully add whole peaches to the boiling water for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until skins loosen.
- Immediately transfer peaches to an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
- Once cool enough to handle, peel the peaches and remove the pits.
- Chop the peeled peaches into roughly 1/2-inch dice (about the size of a pair of dice).
- In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, combine the chopped peaches, sugar, lemon juice, and pectin.
- Bring the mixture to a full rolling boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly.
- Once boiling, continue to boil hard for 1 minute, stirring constantly to prevent scorching.
- Remove from heat and skim off any foam that has risen to the surface.
- Ladle the hot jam into sterilized jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace.
- Wipe the jar rims clean, place lids and rings on jars, and process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (adjust processing time based on your altitude).
