This recipe was extracted from The new Kentucky home cook book (1884) by Maysville (Ky.). Methodist Episcopal Church, South., page 53. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

large cling peaches, ripe but not soft; lay them in weak brine for three days, soak them two hours in fresh water, wipe them with a coarse linen towel to take off the fuzz; cut them nicely from the seed, and fill them with a little chopped cabbage, white mustard-seed, cinnamon, and one small garlic to each peach ; sew or tie them together, put them in jars, and pour over them boiling vinegar made very sweet with brown sugar. A table-spoonful of olive-oil

Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
