Peaches

[msmemory_archive]

OK, so I was at the Nashoba Valley Winery on Saturday with jducoeur, and they had fresh peaches for sale. They'd sell you a small bag and let you select your fruit from their baskets (or for a different price, you could go out to the trees and pick your own).

Anyway, the small bag wasn't nearly as small as it had looked empty, and I now have lots of fresh peaches.

Serving/preserving ideas are invited! (Note that I have never canned anything & don't yet know how.)

Make pancakes or waffles or toast. Slice the peaches, place flat on a plate with some sprinkled sugar/cinnamon/ginger/cloves or whatever. Seal tightly with plastic-wrap and microwave for a minute or less. Serve over same pancakes/waffles/toast.

Anna likes them cut thinly, and used in place of jelly in a peanut butter sandwich.

Cook them down slightly with some sugar and make a peach glaze for chicken or duck.

My favorite summer lunch is a half a canteloupe, filled with sliced peaches and blueberries, and covered with lemon yogurt and some Grape-Nuts as "crunchy".
