Peaches In Brown Sugar With Rum Sauce And Ice Cream Food

CARAMELIZED SKILLET PEACHES

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, toss together peaches, lemon juice, salt, and cinnamon; set aside.
• Melt butter and sugar in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add peach mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until caramelized, about 5 minutes. If using bourbon or rum, add to skillet, and cook until reduced, about 1 minute.
• Serve immediately over ice cream, if desired.

TIPSY PEACHES

Steps:

• Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the peaches, and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Mix in the brown sugar, vanilla, and whiskey; simmer over medium heat for about 20 minutes, until peaches are soft and the sauce has darkened. Serve as a side dish or over ice cream.

PEACH RUM SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a large stainless or enamel pot.
• Bring to a boil, stirring until sugar dissolves.
• Boil gently stirring often until thick-around 20-30 minutes.
• Ladle into clean hot jars leaving 1/4 inch head space.
• Process 10 minutes in a boiling water bath at altitudes up to 1000 feet.

PEACHES IN BROWN SUGAR WITH RUM SAUCE AND ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Melt butter in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add sugar and cinnamon and cook, stirring often, until sugar begins to dissolve (mixture may clump together). Add peaches and vanilla. Sauté until peaches are tender, stirring occasionally, about 4 minutes. Remove skillet from heat. Stir in rum. Return skillet to heat and cook until sauce thickens, stirring frequently, about 2 minutes. Spoon peaches and sauce over ice cream.

PEACH JAM WITH BROWN SUGAR AND RUM

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine peaches with the brown sugar, lemon juice and about half of the rum, stirring to mix. Cover and let stand at room temperature six hours or overnight.
• Wash jars and lids in hot, soapy water. Sterilize jars for 10 minutes in a boiling-water bath, then leave in hot water until ready to fill. Prepare lids according to manufacturer's directions.
• Pour the fruit mixture into a large saucepan or dutch oven. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cover the pan, reduce heat and cook the mixture until the peach chunks begin to look translucent, 15 to 20 minutes; stir occasionally to prevent sticking. If the jam becomes too thick and threatens to scorch before the fruit is done, add 2 to 3 tablespoons of water. Add the granulated sugar, increase heat to medium-high and cook rapidly, stirring almost constantly, until a spoonful placed on a chilled saucer and refrigerated for a few minutes wrinkles instead of runs when the saucer is tilted. (Take jam off the heat while doing this. If using a candy thermometer, this should happen at about 220 degrees.) Add remaining rum and stir the jam (it will boil up when you add the rum) for 2 minutes over the heat.
• Ladle boiling-hot jam into hot, prepared jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Top with lids and process for 15 minutes in a boiling-water bath. Cool jars completely on a dish towel before labeling and storing.

BROWN SUGAR PEACHES

Steps:

• Gently toss sliced peaches, golden brown sugar, and fresh lemon juice in large bowl to blend. Let stand at room temperature until juices form, tossing occasionally, about 2 hours.
