Aunt Mary’s Peach Jam

Aunt Mary’s Peach Jam is an all-natural, home-made conserve whose recipe comes from our Aunt Mary. The taste of this conserve is the warmth of a late summer morning in the sweetness of ripe peaches. The bright orange color adds eye appeal while bits of peach fruit in a smooth jelly entice the palate. This preserve pairs with Der Mutterschaft Cheese, Der Edel Bleu, Mountain Valley Sharp Cheddar, Mountain Meadow Mild Cheddar, Felsa Yehr, and Minced Garlic Cheddar. This jam is also a unique experience on hot biscuits or warm toast.

Although we purchase the peaches from local orchards, it was historically considered that no farm was complete until there were several peach trees on the property. We try to harvest the peaches when they are slightly over-ripe to preserve the deep peach flavor in the sweetness of this jam.  These preserves are used as gifts and are highly prized among families. All Goot Essa condiments are produced in kitchens inspected and approved by the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture.
