Hi Dom46, I am pretty sure there is a good preserves thread on here. I shall see if I can find it and bump it up for you.

Yes nectarines do bottle very well, run knife around twist to split then remove stone and preserve in normal way, cooked in syrup, then into agee jars, seal, enjoy! as for relishes try the good old edmonds cook book, I dont put the chillies in my tomatoe relish.

thanks do l need to take the skins of the nectarines, do you have a recipe also for the syrup...

No you dont need to peel the fruit and any cook book should tell you about sugar qauntities, I just tend to chuck in a measured amount, as you do!
