Chico Preserve

TweetPinShareYummly

Chicos are very delicious when they are ripe and sweet. But eating too mush will make you tipsy. Maybe because it is easily fermented and becomes overripe is a short period of time. So it is best to preserve them if you have a large quantity or if you have chico trees and don’t know where to put them if you can’t sell them immediately.

Ingredients:

Ripe chicos
1 part sugar and 1 part water
(for every 1 cup of sugar use 1 cup water)

How to make preserved chicos:

  • Select ripe but firm chicos. Blanch for 15 minutes in boiling water.
  • Dip immediately in cold water and peel. Cut crosswise into halves and remove the seeds.
  • Pack in 12-ounces jars. Pour in boiling water and allow to stand for 5 minutes.
  • Drain off water and refill with hot syrup made up one part sugar to one part water.
  • Half-seal jars and sterilize for 25 minutes in boiling water. Seal completely.
