Peach and mango salsa recipe4/20/2024 ![]() I suggest not sharing this with anyone but if you must then invite your best friends over for fish tacos and enjoy being refreshed together. This recipe pairs perfectly with a flaky white fish like cod for a Taco Tuesday or obviously with tortilla chips (says the food blogger obsessed with eating chips anytime of the day). Personally, I prefer the peach salsa to its popular pineapple salsa cousin because its more sweet than sour. And you want your peach to hold together in this salsa! I loved that when I cut up the mango and the peach I couldn’t really tell which was which by just looking at it. They don’t smush under the knife and peel perfectly when blanched. ![]() Since Crest Haven peaches are firm they are more than perfect to use for recipes that call for diced peached. Nothing that gets my mouth watering more than thinking of biting into a in-season juicy peach and getting my shirt dirty with sticky juice while doing it! I had a conversation with my friend Christina a bit ago and we were discussing what our favorite food based on all the senses and I stated proudly that mine was the perfect in-season juicy peach. It kind of makes me sad that the juicy peach season is so short. I always snack on a peach or two to fuel the picking! You just can’t go fruit picking and not snack on them as you pick. They are more firm and less juicy than the midseason peach but still ran down chins as we bit into them. Crest Havens were ready and waiting for us to pick. Just last week we went out and picked the last peaches of the season. So I go peach picking with my besties and get to wear their babies and teach them new words! This little guy learned the word “peach” and was obsessed with how fuzzy they were. Plus, he would much rather spend his Saturday or Sunday watching football. The recipe is quick and simple but looks and tastes delicious.Is there anything better than biting into a perfectly juicy peach?Įach year I go peach picking with my friends because lets be honest, my husband is never around during peach/apple season anyway. My children love anything with color, so I put together this easy peach mango salsa that can be used as a garnish for fish or a dip for chips. With the summer heat upon us, I’ve been trying to create recipes that are fresh and healthy. Most of the peaches you’ll find in the stores at this time are ripe and ready to eat and can be stored in the refrigerator for 5-6 days. The peach actually originated in China with the first tree, and California’s climate and soil provides the ideal setting for these sweet stone fruits to grow. You can find two types of peaches, Clingstone and Freestone, which simply refers to the ease with which the stone can be removed. Peaches are actually quite interesting, and during a recent trip to Fresno, California with the California Farm Water Coalition, I learned a bit more about this fruit that interestingly enough, comes from the rose family! While shopping at my local Walmart, I noticed an array of fresh, locally-grown stone fruits, so I decided to pick up a bag of peaches and get creative. ![]() I actually love peaches, apricots, plums, and pluots, but surprisingly, we’ve gotten into a bit of a berry routine so my kids haven’t been exposed to these fruits much. Up until about a month ago, I had no idea what a stone fruit was (silly me!). As I read about the importance of buying local, I’ve been trying to introduce new, in-season fruits and vegetables to my children. My children have their handful of favorite fruits which means very often, we’re purchasing frozen varieties during the off-peak seasons. ![]()
