INGREDIENTS

3 Garlic cloves, peeled

1 cup  Sugar
¾  tsp  Salt

INSTRUCTIONS

 In a food processor, blend the garlic, ginger, and ½ cup of vinegar until smooth.

In a 4 quart non-aluminum pot, add the rest of the vinegar, peaches, apricots, sugar, salt, and cayenne.

Bring to a boil.

Add in the garlic/ginger puree.

Reduce heat and simmer 1 ½- 2 hours, until the texture is similar to honey.

Stir occasionally so that the fruit doesn’t stick to the pot.

Add the raisins and almonds and cook 5 minutes more. Stir in the basil and cilantro.
