To Can Peaches with Cold Water

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Pare and halve the peaches.

  2. Place the peaches in a can, packing them as closely as possible without any sugar.

  3. Pour enough cold water into the can to fill all the spaces between the peaches and reach the brim.

  4. Let the can stand for about six hours.

  5. Pour in additional water to replace what has sunk away.

  6. Seal the can, and it is ready for use.
