More Facts About Peaches
How To Know When A Peach Is Ripe
There are a few telltale signs. The peach should feel a bit soft in your hand when you lightly squeeze it. DON’T squeeze too hard or you could bruise the peach. (It doesn’t take much).
There should be a nice sweet peach scent and the peach should be round in shape, not oblong. There should be a nice blush on the peach peel as well.
For more, really good info on peaches, take a peek at this article on peaches from Parlee Farms.
How To Keep Peaches From Turning Brown Before Freezing
Simple. Cut the peaches into sections and put them into a bowl of acidulated water. (About 4 cups of water with ½c lemon juice). Leave them for about 2 minutes.
This hampers the oxidization process that makes them turn brown. Proceed as normal with the freezing process!
How To Easily Freeze Peaches
Easy!! Simply cut them in sections, off the pit. Lay them on a parchment-lined baking sheet and pop them in the freezer until they are completely frozen, then gather them into a freezer bag in the freezer! Voila!
You don’t want to freeze them whole as they will be too difficult to work with while thawing, and to freeze them in a big bag without freezing them individually will result in a big clump of peaches which makes them impossible to work with for any recipes.
How Long Will Frozen Peaches Stay Good For?
As long as the peaches were prepared properly before freezing, and they are in freezer-safe containers (or bags), they should last at least 10 – 12 months. That is for optimum freshness, but again, if everything was prepared properly, they could last double that time.

Can You Peel Peaches?
Peeling peaches is a simple process!! Taking the peel off of peaches allows you to use them in jams, jellies, sauces, and purees. (and other desserts where you don’t want to skin to interfere with the dish).
Getting the skins off of peaches is described in this How To Peel A Peach tutorial. You’ll be amazed at just how simple it is!
