Preserved Peaches The skins may be removed more easily from ripe peaches if boil- ing water is poured over them, allowing them to stand a few minutes and then placing them in cold water. Make a syrup as directed and either cook the peaches in it, a few at a time, or place peaches in jars and pour the syrup over them, finishing process according to directions given. The flavor of the peaches will be improved if a few of the peach stones are added to the syrup
