  • 2 lb. peeled diced peaches
  • 1 clove minced garlic
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 2 oz. fresh chopped ginger
  • 2 cups date puree
  • 3/4 tbsp. chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp. curry powder
  • 1/2 tbsp. mustard seed
  • 1/8 cup pickling spice
  • 2 cups apple cider vinegar

In a large heavy pot, stir together the peaches, garlic, onion, ginger, chili powder, mustard seed, curry powder, date puree and apple cider vinegar. Wrap the pickling spice in a cheesecloth bag, and place in the pot.

Bring to a boil, and cook over medium heat uncovered until the mixture reaches your desired consistency. It will take about 1 1/2 hours to get a good thick sauce. Stir frequently to prevent scorching on the bottom.

Remove the spice bag, and ladle into hot sterilized jars. Wipe the rims with a clean moist cloth. Seal with lids and rings.
