Lemon Verbena Scented Strawberry Peach Conserves.

Lemon Verbena Scented Strawberry Peach Conserves Recipe on Food52
Serves 800ml

2 cups frais de bois, Marie de bois, or other woodland strawberry
3/4 cup sugar
2 cups frozen or fresh peaches, pureed - I prefer pinkish peaches
1 lemon, juiced
5 sprigs lemon verbena, six leaves set aside

In a large glass or ceramic bowl, hull the strawberries, leaving them whole.
Add the sugar, lemon verbena and lemon juice.
Macerate overnight in the refrigerator.
In a preserving pan or other deep pot that holds at least 4-5L, add the berries with the sugar, verbena and lemon juice.
Bring to a full rolling boil, then add the peach puree and bring back to a boil.
Stir constantly as the puree will want to stick and burn.
Bring the mixture up to 104°C. Stir. Stir. Stir.
Boil for 4 minutes at 104°C, skim any foam - there shouldn't be much - then remove the verbena stalks and funnel into sterilized jars.
Add two verbena leaves to each jar, and cover.

Stuffed Peaches.

Pesche ripiene.

Makes eight peach halves

Ingredients:
4 big yellow peaches
7 ounces Amaretti crunchy cookies
3.5 ounces sugar
1 egg yolk
Eight knobs (about 8 to 12 tablespoons) butter
Half glass white wine

Method:
- Wash the peaches then cut them in half and pit.
- Use a spoon to remove some pulp in the center of each peach and cook it in a saucepan over low heat with the sugar for about 15 minutes.
- In a bowl, crush the Amaretti cookies and mix with egg yolk. You can add a drop of sweet liquor, like Sassolino, if you'd like.
- Fill the peaches with the mixture and add a knob (about 1 to 1-1/2 tablespoons) butter and a dash of sugar to each one.
- Pour the wine into a tray, arrange the peaches on it, and cook at 340 degrees Fahrenheit for about 30 minutes.
- Enjoy warm or even cold. They're also delicious the day after.
