Frequently Asked Recipe Questions
Peaches are great to enjoy with either a savory or sweet recipe. Here are just a few herbs and spices that mix well with peaches: cinnamon, cloves, vanilla, nutmeg, mint, basil, ginger and honey.
If the peaches you brought home from the farmer's market or grocery store are not sweet, you can place them in a brown paper bag in hopes that they'll ripen and sweeten. Or you can add them to a peach dessert recipe. Grilling the fruit helps also. Make sure you drizzle them with a sweet balsamic vinegar glaze when they're finished.
