Peaches, Yellow (2 lbs.)

Peaches can be ripened on a window sill or kitchen table at room temperature inside a paper bag. Once they reach the perfect ripeness, eat them immediately or refrigerate them for up to 2-3 days in an unsealed plastic or paper bag.

To prepare your fresh, ripe peaches for cooking, gently wash, peel, and remove the pit. Peeling peaches is easy if you blanch them. Blanching simply means dipping the peaches in boiling water for 30 seconds and then dipping them in a cold water/ice bath. The skins will come right off, leaving juicy pink, orange, or sometimes white flesh. Use lemon juice to avoid browning. Or wash and eat whole!
