Peach Conserve

• 1 large orange
• 1/4 cup water
• 2 quarts peeled and chopped peaches
• 6 1/2 cups sugar
• 3/4 cup crushed pineapple, drained
• 1/2 cup chopped maraschino cherries
• 3 tablespoons lime juice
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/4 teaspoon ground mace

1. Remove rind from orange, leaving half of white pith intact. Cut rind into small pieces; set aside. Section orange; remove and discard seeds. Dice pulp.
2. Combine orange rind and pulp in a flat-bottomed kettle. Add water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes or until rind is tender. Stir in remaining ingredients. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until mixture registers 220u0b0 on a candy thermometer or until mixture sheets from a cold metal spoon. Remove from heat; skim off foam.
3. Quickly ladle conserve into hot sterilized jars, leaving 1/4- inch head space. Cover at once with metal lids, and screw bands tight. Process in boiling water bath 15 minutes.
