One day, a handy little tool came into my life called a serrated peeler.
It's just like a standard vegetable peeler, but they're a little bitty teeth that are exactly what we need to make that peach skin slip right off.
It is so easy.
And before you know it, you have worked through your entire bowl full of peaches.
Now, in a lot of recipes where you're going to cook the peaches, you don't have to worry about them darkening, what we call oxidizing, because that's gonna cook away or it won't matter.
But what if you need to head that off anyhow?
Got a great trick for that too.
The tiny bubbles in this bowl is club soda.
Club soda is neutral and all you need to do is to let your peaches hang out in the club soda for a few minutes and then drain it out and put them in some sort of container that you can store them in the refrigerator for a couple of days.
Guess what?
At the end, your club soda has picked up that peach flavor and you are rewarded for your cleverness by being able to drink peach-infused club soda.
Isn't that something?
