How to Make Peach Jam With Brown Sugar And Rum

  1. In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches, brown sugar, rum, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  2. Gently stir to coat the peaches evenly. Cover and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 6 hours) to allow the peaches to macerate and release their juices.
  3. Transfer the peach mixture to a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven.
  4. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  5. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for approximately 50-65 minutes, or until the jam has thickened to your desired consistency. Skim off any foam that rises to the surface.
  6. To test for doneness, place a small spoonful of jam on a chilled plate. If it wrinkles slightly when pushed with a finger, it's ready.
  7. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  8. Ladle the hot jam into sterilized jars, leaving about 1/4 inch headspace.
  9. Wipe the jar rims clean, seal, and process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (to ensure safe preservation, consult a reliable canning guide for details).
  10. Allow the jars to cool completely. You should hear a satisfying 'pop' as the jars seal. Store in a cool, dark place.
