  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1       ea           Peaches (peck)
   1       qt           Brandy
   1       x            Sugar

  Skin peaches by pouring boiling water over a few at a time and
  allowing to stand a few minutes. Then dip in cold water and skins will
  rub off. After peaches have been skinned, measure them and use one
  half of their weight in sugar. Have a large, clean, covered stone
  crock and put in a layer of peaches and a layer of sugar until all
  ingredients are used.  Pour the brandy over the layers. Cover the
  crock with a heavy piece of white muslin before placing on the top of
  the crock. Set aside in a cool place and allow peaches to stand 2 to 3
  months before using.
