Summer Peach Relish

Serves 4

• 6-8 ripe Peach-O-Rama Peaches, peeled, pitted, and cut into 1/2-inch dice
• 3 tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 1 red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded, and cut into 1/4-inch dice
• 2 tsp finely minced green jalapeño pepper, or more to taste
• 1 tbsp finely minced fresh ginger
• 1 tbsp finely minced crystallized ginger
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp ground mace
• 1 cup golden raisins
• 1 cup cider vinegar

1. Place the peaches in a large heavy saucepan, and stir in 2 tablespoons of the lemon juice. Add all the remaining ingredients and toss well. Bring to a boil, stirring once. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 30 minutes.
2. Remove the pan from the heat and let the relish cool to room temperature . Stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon lemon juice. The relish will thicken as it cools. Refrigerate it, covered until ready to use, up to 4 weeks.
