The summer is ending and that means it’s last call for summer produce! Peach season is here and it’s the perfect time to be enjoying this delicious stone fruit. The best part about using peaches is that you can use them in both sweet and savory recipes.

If you’re looking to take the skin off of peaches, the best way is to blanch them. Start a pot to boil, and add your peaches. Let them sit in the hot water for about 10-15 seconds, and then take them out. Let them stand for a second and then carefully slice off the skin. Putting them in hot water helps to loosen the skin and make it easier to remove. When you’re done, your peaches are ready to work with.

Peaches in savory dishes might sound odd, but their sweetness helps to cut through the savory flavors. You can even make a quick slaw and add diced peaches in for a sweeter flavor and use it on tacos! If you’re not looking to experiment much, there are plenty of dessert recipes and juices to make with peaches. Peaches taste wonderful baked into pies or even into crumble bars and cobblers!
