Five More things to do with Peaches

Simmer peach halves in alight, fruity wind with a bit of sugar and ground cloves until tender. Serve chilled on their own or with crisp lemon cookies.

Dice peaches and use them as the lead ingredient in a fruit salsa-and don’t forget the jalapenos. Grilled fish or chicken will pair beautifully with the sweetness and the heat.

Sauté peach chunks in butter, brown sugar, and a dash of cinnamon until the edges are browned. Spoon over buttermilk waffles or oatmeal

Puree unpeeled peaches with superfine sugar, grated lemon zest, and a dash of lemon-flavored liqueur. Serve the puree ice cold in small soup bowls and garnish with a few diced peaches and thinly sliced mint leaves.

Scoop out some of the flesh from halved, pitted peaches, leaving about ½ inch of a shell. Freeze the shells and use the flesh to make a sorbet. Spoon the sorbet back into each shell and freeze. Serve with a light, sweet sparkling wine like Moscato.
