Peach Jelly FAQ
Peach jelly is a delightful concoction that packs a punch of flavor in every spoonful. Its versatility allows it to straddle the line between sweet and savory, making it perfect for a host of culinary adventures. While it's loved by many for its traditional uses, such as a delicious spread for bread and pastries, many don't utilize it to its full potential in a wide range of sweet and savory recipes. However, common mistakes include using peach jelly only as a spread and not exploring its potential in cooking different dishes. Overusing peach jelly in a recipe can turn a delicious dish into an overly sweet concoction. Moreover, not all peach jellies are created equal— the flavor and quality will largely depend on the brand, so it's important to choose wisely. To get the most out of peach jelly, it can be used as a glaze for meats (like pork or chicken) to give them a sweet, sticky and slightly tangy flavor. You can experiment with adding peach jelly to barbecue or teriyaki sauces for an added fruity kick or mix it in your yogurt for a sweet twist. Little-known yet helpful tips include using peach jelly to sweeten a summer cocktail or add a fruity flavor to homemade salad dressings. With all these uses and ways to incorporate peach jelly into your daily meals, the culinary possibilities are virtually endless.

Expiration & Storage Tips
When does peach jelly expire?
Unopened peach jelly can last for up to a year after the printed date if stored in a cool, dark place, such as a pantry. Once opened, it will keep for 6 months to a year in the refrigerator. If you decide to freeze your jelly, it can last up to a year as well, but the texture might slightly change upon thawing.
How do you tell if peach jelly is bad?
Spoiled peach jelly typically develops a noticeable mold, which can range in color from white to green, black, or even red. The jelly may also have a distinctly sour smell or taste. Furthermore, if the jelly can no longer maintain a jelly-like consistency and converts to a liquid form, it's time to throw it out.
Tips for storing peach jelly to extend shelf life
• Always use clean utensils when digging into the jar to prevent contamination. • Once opened, always store your peach jelly in the refrigerator to prolong its shelf life. • Unopened jars can be stored in a cool, dark place like a pantry. • If you have a surplus of peach jelly, freezing it in small, sealed containers allows it to last even longer, but keep in mind this may slightly alter its texture once thawed. • Twist the lid until it’s tightly sealed when refrigerating or freezing. This will help to keep air and bacteria out. • Label your jars with the date so you will always know if your jelly is still good.
