I do love peaches, but my absolute favorite is pickled peaches. Can't find them any more, my old college room mate's mom used to make them, yummy.

That's one of many things I love about the upstate- I'm in the middle of peach country! I've already made several pies this year, despite only having a little toaster oven in my camper.
I hope my ship comes in before the dock rots!

We had a job last week where there is a peach tree in the front yard. It was loaded with fruit to the point where the limbs were touching the ground. Not ripe here, yet.

Last Sunday on the way back home, we noticed that a bunch of the peach trees in the Syria, VA had their leaves turning black.  Was wondering what got them.  Maybe I can take some pictures this coming week end.

Pickled peaches..... hmmm that sounds good!

I bought some peaches at the produce stand last week. Juicy and delish! Like you David I put half and half with a tad of sugar in the raw. :)

My Grandmother made pickled peaches, too.  Brings back old, old, memories.  Very old memories  :).

We had several peach trees in the back yard when I was a kid. They were voer the drain field for the septic system. Made really sweet peaches though and so many the branches would break. Couldn't eat them all.The ones that would fall off would ferment and the dogs would eat them. A peach drunk dog is a truly funny sight to see.

Been thinking about pickled peaches...

Are they dill or sweet?

Anyone got a known recipe?

Sweet but with a little bit of a vinegary bite.  Just enough to get yore attention.

I was always told that you have to use "cling seed" peaches to pickle them.

Magic would you define "cling seed" for me, never heard of that.  Thanks.

Magicman

Generally the first peach variety to ripen are cling seed (stone) peaches.  The fruit is firmly attached to the seed and very difficult to separate.  About a month to 6 weeks later the "free stones" will ripen.  The fruit is very loosely attached to the seed and it is easily removed.  To me the freestones are sweeter and they are my favorites.

I just received my 4 jars of pickled peaches from  Meadow Croft Farms in Swoope, VA and I have to say, they are some of THE best pickled peaches I have ever had. Very spendy, but worth the treat. They are half peaches packed in the jar so there is more than you think. Look them up at:

I think I'll eat another couple.......

I was at a local market in Boise the other day and they had a boatload of "donut" peaches. I had never seen or heard of them. The main guy said it was an old world white meat peach with a small pit. I bought a couple and they were delicious. Anyone else heard of donut peaches?
