INSTRUCTIONS

This recipe may be made with any combination of peaches, nectarines,
apricots, and plums.  This recipe may be made without sugar or with up
to 2 cups, according  to taste or preference. Non-nutritive sweeteners
may be added. If  aspartame (a low-calorie nutritive sweetener) is
used, the sweetening  power of aspartame may be lost within 3 to 4
weeks.  Yield: 5 to 6 half-pints  Procedure: Thoroughly wash 4 to 6
pounds of firm, ripe peaches. Drain  well. Peel and remove pits. Grind
fruit flesh with a medium or coarse  blade, or crush with a fork (do
not use a blender). Place ground or  crushed fruit in a 2-quart
saucepan. Heat slowly to release juice,  stirring constantly, until
fruit is tender. Place cooked fruit in a  jelly bag or strainer lined
with four layers of cheesecloth. Allow  juice to drip about 15 minutes.
Save the juice for jelly or other  uses. Measure 4 cups of drained
fruit pulp for making spread. Combine  the 4 cups of pulp, pineapple,
and lemon juice in a 4-quart saucepan.  Add up to 2 cups of sugar, if
desired, and mix well. Heat and boil  gently for 10 to 15 minutes,
stirring enough to prevent sticking.  Fill jars quickly, leaving
1/4-inch headspace.  Adjust lids and process as recommended in Table 1.
