2 lb.- fresh peaches (diced)
¼ lb.- dark brown sugar
1 tsp- sea salt
- Tools

Sauce pot
Method
- In a saucepan on low heat, macerate the peaches and sugar. Allow it to simmer until it has a smooth homogenized texture.
- Give it a taste and adjust to your taste. The salt is like a bridge for flavor and brings out the fullness of the peach flavor.
- Once satisfied, spread out on a baking sheet and refrigerate to cool it down quickly. This stops the cooking process and adds shelf life to your ingredient.
