➤ When: Although peaches are available from May to October in most regions of the United States, they’re sweetest in the summer.
➤ What to Look For: Look for white-flesh peaches: They’re usually even sweeter and more honeyed than the yellow-flesh ones. Peaches should have a sweet scent and yield to gentle pressure. Avoid peaches with bruised, shriveled, or dented skin.
➤ Why: Because peaches are rich in potassium and flavonoids, they are a delicious way to stay healthy.
➤ How to Use: A ripe summer peach is so sweet and juicy it can be a dessert all by itself. However, peaches are commonly used in pies, nectars, cobblers, cakes, and soufflés. They also make great salsas, can be grilled with other fruits, and blend happily into drinks. Try a Bellini—fresh peach juice and champagne.
