Marco Polo Peach Preserve 368g (13oz)

Marco Polo Peach Preserve is a 368g jar of sweet peach fruit preserve — tender, sun-ripe peach preserved in the jam format, with a colour that runs from amber to gold and a flavour that delivers the full sweetness of a ripe summer peach in a format that lasts well past the season and spreads across bread, pastry, or yogurt throughout the year. Marco Polo is a specialty food brand in the European-diaspora market, and the fruit preserve line covers the canonical European and Balkan fruit-preserve flavours — peach, sour cherry, plum, fig, and quince — in the jar size that suits the household pantry rather than the restaurant kitchen. Peach preserves hold a particular place in Central European and Balkan breakfasts: the fruit that the late-summer kitchen puts up in jars as one of the most important preserve-making fruits of the season, whose sweet, fragrant jam appears on the breakfast table through autumn and winter as one of the warmest flavour reminders of summer in the region. Spread on warm toast or bread as the peach preserve for the morning breakfast, use as a filling for palačinke or other thin pancakes, spoon over Greek yogurt for a simple summer-flavour dessert, or use as the peach layer in a Linzer tart or almond pastry.
