Quicker Baked Potato

Try this method for speeding up the potato baking process (for a better texture than those that you microwave). Pre-heat the oven to 400. Place the potato in boiling water for 10 minutes. Bake for 30 minutes. This will cut the cooking time in half.

 

Peach Spread


condiments, jams

2 lb peaches, about 8 medium
1 teaspoon ascorbic acid color keeper
2 cup water
7 allspice berries

Spread may be sweetened after cooking with aspartame or liquid artificial sweetener, if desired. Authors liked the taste best without additional sweetener. Peel and pit peaches. Place peelings and pits in a saucepan. Cut up fruit into mixing bowl; stir in ascorbic acid color keeper; set aside. Add water and allspice berries to peelings in saucepan. Bring to boil, reduce heat and cook about 25 min or until liquid is reduced to about 1/2 cup. Discard peel and pits. Stir in peaches. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and cook over medium heat 35 min, stirring and mashing occasionally. Remove from heat, mash well or puree, if desired. Ladle into hot clean jars, leaving 1/2 inch headspace. Wipe jar rims. Seal. Process 10 min in a boiling water bath. Store in a cool dark dry place. Makes about 1 2/3 cups. May be stored in the refrigerator up to one month or in the freezer up to 3 months without the boiling water process.
