Sides Peach Salad

peach salad
(from The Great Western Cook Book, Or Table Receipts: Adapted to Western Housewifery, by Anna Maria Collins, 1857)

Ingredients:

4 - 5 ripe, juicy peaches​
loaf-sugar​
1 spoonful of brandy, or wine​

Instructions:

Peel four or five ripe, juicy peaches, and slice them neatly, and have each slice as much alike as possible in shape and thickness; lay them in a glass dish, and cover them with loaf-sugar, pour over them a spoonful of brandy or wine; turn them off the top to the bottom, so they may all be seasoned alike.​
The most of fruits may be prepared in the same way; but never mix fruits.​
