Fresh-Peach-Infused Vinegar

A wonderful vinegar to use as a dressing for salads, this vinegar makes a great hostess gift when presented in a glass jar.

INGREDIENTS

• 6 pounds over-ripe peaches, pitted and roughly chopped
• 3 cups of white wine vinegar
• 1/2 cup honey

DIRECTIONS

Step 1
Bring peaches, vinegar and honey to a simmer in a large saucepan. Cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat, cover and let cool completely.

Step 2
Working in batches, puree peach mixture in a food processor until smooth–about 10 seconds. Strain through fine sieve into a large nonreactive bowl. Line sieve with cheesecloth, and place over another large nonreactive bowl. Pour strained peach mixture into sieve. Do not press solids into the sieve. Cover with plastic wrap and let set in fridge overnight (or up to 2 days).

Step 3
Uncover and remove sieve from bowl. Discard solids. Pour peach vinegar int a resealable nonreactive jar or bottle. (Mason jars work great!).

Vinegar can be refrigerated for up to 1 month.
