Notes
Makes 6 pints.
Use any sweet, fresh, in season peaches you can find.
If you don't have red pepper, use any color bell pepper you have. The red just looks great with the yellow peaches.
Try to find free stone peaches for easy preparation.
Add vinegar to peaches as soon as they are cut up and added to pot, to minimize browning.
Test lids for seal. Press center of lid down in the middle. If it flexes up and down, jar is not sealed.
If lids have not sealed, store those jars in refrigerator and consume those jars first.
Store sealed jars in a cool place.
