"If you are like me you love to have a complimentary side for pork or poultry. I always serve it for special occasions but my husband is always looking for it whenever I serve pork chops or chicken."

Step by Step Method

Step 1

Prepare jars and lids Place almonds in a 9 inch pan and bake 350 oven till golden about 8 to 10 minutes, shaking pan occasionally. This step is critical to the flavor.

Step 2

Peel, core, and chop pears; you should have 10-1/2 cups

Step 3

In a 8-10 quart pan, combine almonds, pears, bell pepper, sugar, vinegar, golden raisins, apricots, red onions, ginger, cinnamon, allspice, cloves, garlic salt and cayenne. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to medium-high and stir often until mixture is thick and reduced by 1/3, about 1 1/4 hours.

Step 4

Fill jars and leave 1/2 inch headspace in each jar and process for 20 minutes.

Step 5

Tips: Use a ruler to measure volume when you start cooking to easily ascertain when it's been reduced by 1/3.
