CAMP Home Economist There i^ an interesting history behind the peach. Once called “Persian apples* they origi nally came to Europe from China, traveling over caravan routes through Persia. Peaches were cultivated in China more than 4,000 years ago. Our mod ern-day peach is greatly dif ferent from the old, small, bit ter fruit. An early colonist brought the peach to America. Development of varieties and constant improvement has plac ed peaches No. 4 among fresh fruit by preference in the United States. South Carolina ranks first in production and shipment of fresh peaches. They are in season here from June to Aug ust. Peach varieties fall into one or two basic types: Clingstone or Freestone, although a few varieties are know as ‘semi- Clingstone* or “semi- Freestone.* Within each of these* two types are two color classes - yellow-fie shed and white fleshed. Freestone varie ties are most popular for fresh dessert use and freezing. Good quality peaches should be bright and fresh in appearance and have a background color that is either yellowish or creamy. Red color, or “ blush 1 ’, may also be present in differing degrees, depending on variety and pre harvest weather, but red color alone is not a true sign of edible quality. Peaches should be fairly firm, but not hard. Overmature, or soft peaches, should be avoided, unless they are for immediate use. IIpicked when a creamy or yellowish background color, they will usually ripen satisfactorily. Peaches should be kept at room temperature for 3 to 4 days, or until fully ripe. Then store them in the refrigerator until ready to use. Wait until near serving time to peel peaches unless you coat them with orange or lemon juice or fruit freeze powder to pre vent darkening. Pour boiling water over peaches in a colander to make peeling easier. This process loosens the thin skin and makes it easier to remove. Peaches are low in calorie. Yellow-fleshed peaches offer three major nutrients-Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and iron. Dish up a peachy treat for your family soon.
