How to peel peaches?

To make peeling peaches easier, blanch them in water first.

Bring a pot of water to boil, big enough to hold several peaches at a time, fully submerged. Using a slotted spoon, dip each peach in and leave in for 45-60 seconds. Take out using same spoon, and put directly into a cold water bath (once again, fully submerged). The skins should peel right off; you can use a paring knife or just your fingers. If they don't, you may have to repeat the process.

Some people also claim that boiling your peaches like this for a little bit longer can improve the flavor of an underripe fruit.

Good luck!
