Make sure to wash your peaches carefully in cool soapy water
, then rinse well before eating or using. This will rid the fruit of any chemicals or micro organisms on the skin. If you plan to use them for cooking the skin will peel much more easily if blanched in boiling water for about a minute then plunged into ice water to cool. In fruit salads simply sprinkle diced peaches with fresh lemon juice to help them keep their rich peachy color. No matter how you use them, it's sure to be a delicious summer!
