Fruits
Selecting the best fruit for your recipes is important. Here are some
helpful hints:
Apples – use firm, crisp apples that are good for cooking, such
as Granny Smith or Golden Delicious. Have fun combining tart
and sweet varieties too!
Peaches – select firm, fully ripe peaches with a healthy golden
color and no green. Choose varieties good for cooking, such
as Red Haven and Redskin.
Ever wonder how to easily peel those perfectly ripe (and tender)
peaches? Place peaches in a pot of boiling water for 30 to 60 seconds
or until skins start to crack. Immediately dip in cold water. The skins
should slip off easily – voila!
Treat your fresh-cut fruit to prevent browning and protect the flavor.
Here are two ways we recommend:
Use Ball

brand Fruit-Fresh

Produce
Protector – combine 2 tsp Fruit-Fresh
®
Produce Protector with 3 tbsp water
and toss with 4 cups of cut produce.
– OR –
Use lemon juice – submerge cut produce
in mixture of 1/4 cup lemon juice and
4 cups water.
Wide mouth jars work best with whole or halved fruits, such as peaches.
Regular mouth jars are best suited for pourable foods like applesauce.
