Zugemüß 161. Pfersig Muß - Peach Sauce: 16th century jam?

Introduction

In Marx Rumpolt's 1581 cookbook called Ein New Kochbuch, there is a recipe for Zugemüß 161.  Pfersig Muß. In English, this means peach sauce (or pottage). It appears to be a 16th century recipe for jam (preserves).

For my experiment today, I do not have fresh peaches. So, instead I will be using a store bought container of peaches.

Procedure

Peel the peaches, remove the pits, and dice into small cubes. Press peaches with mortar and pestle (or something with similar effect). Drain. Combine with 1/4 cup sugar in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Then, simmer for 2-5 minutes. If it becomes too thick, add a little water (or wine). Remove from heat. Sprinkle with 1 Tbsp sugar. Stir. Let cool and serve. Enjoy!
