Nectarines
If you love everything about peaches but the fuzz, fresh nectarines are the fruit for you! Botanically speaking, these stone fruits are practically identical. Nectarines and peaches both come into season during the summer, they both have yellow-and-red skins, and they even be used interchangeably in recipes. Iin fact, the only real difference between them would seem to be that peaches have downy skins while nectarine skins are smooth. But the nectarine is more than just the peach’s fuzz-less cousin…when you bite into a luscious, ripe nectarine, you can taste the subtle difference from its cousin the peach, though some opinions vary on just what the difference is. Many people say that nectarines have slight, almost citrusy undertones, while other insists they’re sweeter than peaches (after all, they have “nectar” right in the name).
Regardless, sweet, summer-tasting nectarines from Pittman & Davis are a treat you won’t want to miss. When you order Nectarines from Pittman & Davis, you’ll never have a hard or tasteless nectarine like those found in a local grocery store…savor them on the back porch as a refreshing, juicy, low-calorie and healthy afternoon snack. Or bake them into a delicious cobbler or crisp and served warm with ice cream or whipped cream. For a special treat, you can even try grilled Nectarines prepared on the barbecue!
