• Cover veal shank with 3 quarts of cold water and simmer about 3 hours.
• Remove meat from bones and cut into small pieces.
• Strain broth and return to kettle.

HOT PEPPER PEACH SPREAD

Steps:

• In a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, combine mashed peaches and tomatoes, fresh hot peppers, lime juice, onion, red bell pepper, red pepper flakes, and cayenne.
• Stir in the powdered pectin (a 1-3/4 oz. packet). Bring to a boil.
• Stir in the sugar and butter and return to a full rolling boil that can't be stirred down.
• Remove pot from heat and skim off foam with a metal spoon.
• Put a dried red chili in each of your sterilized, hot, half-pint canning jars. Ladle the spread immediately into jars, allowing 1/4 inch head-space at top.
• Be sure to wipe the jars and adjust the lids before you process them in a boiling-water canner for 10 minutes.
• Remove jars and cool on wire racks.
