Prosciutto Finger Sandwiches With Spicy Peach Jam Food

PEACH JAM

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil. Put peaches in the boiling water for just 1 minute or under. Take them out with a slotted spoon and place them in cold water. Peel and slice peaches. Discard peach pits. Put peaches into a large (wide-open) heavy bottom pot and add the sugar. Bring to a boil. Continue to boil mixture and stir frequently. Mixture will thicken in approximately 45 minutes to an hour. As mixture thicken, you must stir more frequently to ensure that it does not stick to the bottom of the pot. To test whether the jam is ready, place a cold metal spoon in the mixture and tilt. The jam should form a single stream.

BERRY RUM PUNCH

Steps:

• Blend the mixed fruit, coconut rum, light rum, simple syrup, and lime juice in a large shaker with ice. Shake vigorously and pour over a glass full of ice. Top with a splash of soda water and garnish with strawberry slice.

PROSCIUTTO AND FIG-JAM SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Cut baguette into four 5- to 6-inch-long pieces; split each piece horizontally, leaving one side intact. Spread all bread halves with fig jam; layer bottom halves with prosciutto, cheese, and arugula. Fold halves together, and serve.
• Fig Jam
• In a medium saucepan, combine figs with sugar and the water. Bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve sugar. Reduce heat. Cover and simmer until almost all liquid has evaporated and figs are very tender, about 20 minutes.
• Transfer mixture to a food processor; add lemon juice. Puree until smooth (if mixture is too thick, add up to 1/4 cup additional water, a little at a time). Jam can be refrigerated up to 1 month in an airtight container.
