MM,

I saw fresh peaches in Rustan’s today. This post of yours inspired me to get my hand on a couple.

Sayang nga lang na the prices are prohibitive for a full basket of peaches. Lumalabas P70.00 isa. I know for some this might be a steal but for us who are not that well off financially, di pwede nang “one-to-sawa” ang bibilhin mo.

Nonetheless, I was happy about this post of yours because i love peaches and to come across fresh ones in the supermarket for me, at least, is really a foodie treasure.

I seldom eat peaches nowadays. Being in the northeast, I know they are treated with pesticides to get them in perfect shape for market.

Jade186, I’m guessing apricots, one of my all-time favourites along with peaches. But maybe that’s just wishful thinking!

I prefer white peaches as well, they are amazingly aromatic. I have yet to find a peach grown in the northeast that can compare to west coast or southern peaches…and believe me I have tried at every farmers’ market or pick-your-own I come across. It may be because peach trees in the northeast seem to be much more prone to disease…it is next to impossible to find organically grown peaches of eating quality comparable to what you might find in California.

Apples, on the other hand, do very well in the northeast. As do cherries.

peaches are a tasty and tactile delight (fuzzy texture, as you pointed out). my first peach-picking experience was at michigan a few years ago. glad yours was enjoyable!

Nectarine and peach looks similar except peaches haves powdery hairs, taste? nectarine is good to eat as it is while peaches you can turn it into a delicious juice using a blender. try making your own coctail out of it,peach,banana,mango,carrot and orange with ice cubes and sugar..superb!!!!
