Peppers accent sweet luscious peaches to produce a tangy,
sweet condiment that looks lovely and tastes even better served
with cheese, grilled entrees and sandwiches. Adjust the heat
of this trendy condiment by adding or decreasing the proportion
of hot to sweet peppers. This recipe requires Bernardin®
No Sugar Needed Fruit Pectin, a unique product that gels mixtures
with less or no sugar.

Place 6 clean 250 or 236 mL mason jars on a rack in a boiling
water canner; cover jars with water and heat to a simmer (180°F/82°C).
Set screw bands aside; heat SNAP Lids in hot water, NOT boiling
(180°F/82°C). Keep jars and SNAP Lids hot until ready
to use.
Blanch, peel and pit peaches; cut peach halves into thin
1/8 inch (3 mm) slices. Measure 2 1/2 cups (625 mL); set aside.
Combine peppers, onion and vinegar in a large stainless steel
saucepan. Whisk in No Sugar Needed Fruit
Pectin until dissolved. Stirring occasionally, bring mixture
to a full rolling boil. Add sugar and return mixture to a
boil that cannot be stirred down. Add peaches, return to a
boil and boil 1 minute. Ladle relish into a hot jar to within
1/4 inch (0.5 cm) of top rim (headspace). Using a non-metallic
utensil, remove air bubbles. Wipe jar rim removing any stickiness.
Centre SNAP Lid on jar; apply screw band securely &
firmly until resistance is met -- fingertip
tight. Do not overtighten. Place jar in canner;
repeat for remaining relish. Cover canner; bring water to
a boil. Process -boil filled jars - 10 minutes. Remove jars
without tilting. Cool upright, undisturbed 24 hours; DO NOT
RETIGHTEN screw bands. After cooling check jar seals. Sealed
lids curve downward. Remove screw bands; wipe and dry bands
and jars. Store screw bands separately or replace loosely
on jars, as desired. Label and store jars in a cool, dark
place.
