Tips and Techniques
- Use fresh, ripe peaches for the best flavor.
- To blanch peaches, for easier peeling, score the skin on the bottom of each peach with a sharp knife to make an “X.” Add the peaches to a pot of boiling water for 30 to 60 seconds, then transfer to a bowl of ice water to quickly cool. This should make the skin much easier to remove.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Consume within 2 weeks for best results.
