NOT-SO-CLASSIC PEACH MELBA

Steps:

• Make the raspberry sauce: Put 1 cup raspberries and 2 tablespoons sugar in a blender and whiz to liquify. Pour through a fine-meshed strainer and into a medium bowl. Keep cool.
• Using a paring knife, peel and halve the peaches. Slice the halves into half-moon pieces about 3/8-inch thick. Transfer to a bowl. Add 2 teaspoons sugar and a few drops of lemon juice to taste. Toss to coat.
• To serve, arrange peach slices in the bottom of 6 dessert bowls. Top each serving with a scoop or 2 of vanilla ice cream. Splash raspberry sauce over each portion. Garnish with a few raspberries if you wish.

PEACH MELBA POTS

Steps:

• Put the mascarpone, yogurt, sugar, ground cloves and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Using a balloon whisk, beat until smooth. Pour in the cream and whisk again until the mixture just holds its shape - you want it to be soft and pillowy, so be careful not to take it too far.
• Put a little jam in the bottom of 6 small glasses or pots, top with some of the cream mixture, then 4 peach slices and more jam. Follow this with another layer of the cream, a drizzle of jam and finally the raspberries. Can be chilled for up to 5 hrs. Scatter over the hazelnuts and serve with biscotti or amaretti biscuits on the side.

PEACH MELBA JAM (PEACHES & RASPBERRIES) RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:

• Note: I use the Ball Automatic Jam & Jelly Maker and the Ball Fresh Tech Auto Canner, because I love small batch canning, and the convenience of pushing a few buttons and letting technology do all the work. However, this recipe can still be made the more traditional way using a pot, stirrer and a stove. You can also use the traditional water bath technique to preserve the jam; with the Fresh Tech Autocanner, I use a lot less water and it's fully automated. On with the directions: Prepare the fruit. If using the Automatic Jam & Jelly Maker, evenly spread the pectin, then add the fruit. Add the butter. Turn the Automatic Jam & Jelly Maker on by pressing jam and OK. After four minutes, it will beep to add the sugar, slowly and evenly. Add the fresh lemon juice. (Otherwise combine everything, bring to a rapid boil until thick. Test with a frozen metal spoon to check thickness.) When the Automatic Jam & Jelly Maker beeps, carefully remove the stirrer and pour into prepared canning jars. For the Fresh Tech Auto Canner: Place the jars and press PRE-HEAT and then START. Once the Fresh Tech Auto Canner beeps, remove each jar to be filled with jam. Add a lid and band, and tighten (but don't over tighten). Place into the Fresh Tech Auto Canner. Press JAMS & JELLIES, then press Recipe 1. Otherwise, use the traditional water canning method. Allow to cool for at least 12 hours and store in a cool place.

PEACH MELBA

Steps:

• Put the water, sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla pod into a wide saucepan and heat gently to dissolve the sugar. Bring the pan to the boil and let it bubble away for about 5 minutes, then turn the heat down to a fast simmer.
• Cut the peaches in half, and if the stones come out easily then remove them, if not then you can get them out later. Poach the peach halves in the sugar syrup for about 2 to 3 minutes on each side depending on the ripeness of the fruit. Test the cut side with the sharp point of a knife to see if they are soft, and then remove them to a plate with a slotted spoon.
• When all the peaches are poached, peel off their skins and let them cool (then you can remove any remaining stones). If you are making them a day in advance then let the poaching syrup cool and then pour into a dish with the peaches. Otherwise just bag up the syrup and freeze it for the next time you poach peaches.
• To make the raspberry sauce, liquidize the raspberries, confectioners' sugar, and lemon juice in a blender or a food processor. Sieve to remove the pits and pour the puree into a jug.
• To assemble the Peach Melba, allow 2 peach halves per person and sit them on each plate alongside a scoop or 2 of ice cream. Spoon the raspberry sauce over each.

RASPBERRY PEACH JAM

Steps:

• In a 8-quart saucepan, cook the raspberries and peaches over low to medium heat until soft. Lightly mash the fruit with a potato masher.
• Meanwhile, prepare a boiling water canner. Heat the jars and lids in simmering water until ready to use. Do not boil. Set bands aside.
• In a large measuring cup, combine 2 cups sugar with the pectin. Add the lemon juice and sugar-pectin mixture to the fruit. Over high heat, bring the mixture to a full rolling boil that cannot be stirred down, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon. Boil for 1 minute. Add the remaining 5 cups of sugar immediately, and bring back to a hard boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
• Turn the heat on low to medium. Skim foam if necessary. Ladle hot jam into the hot jars, leaving ½ inch head-space. Wipe the rim of the jar with a damp paper towel. Center the lid on the jar. Apply the band until the fit is fingertip tight.
• Process jars in a boiling water canner for 10 minutes, adjusting for altitude. Remove the jars and allow to cool completely. Check the lids for seal after 24 hours. The lid should not flex up and down when the center is pressed. Store jars in a cool, dry place for up to 18 months.
