I've got nectarines coming out of my ears. Most of them, of course, are
partly eaten by birds though, so I'm going to stew them.

What's the easiest way to peel them? Do I peel them before cutting out the
bird nibbles, or after? Do I need to peel them to stew them?

Does anyone know some sort of recipe for a cake on top of stewed nectarines
type dish?

Thanks

Jen

Drop them in a pot of boiling water for a minute, and then into ice
water- should make them easier to peel

did you know: If it wasn't for experimentation with exposure to
radioactivity, we wouldn't have nectarines? they are a result of a
French experiment...completely random at that.....good on France!

Henceforth to be know as "Freedom Fruit?"

Google for Melba's Jammin' and her rhubarb custard cake.

It should work quite well for freshly sliced nectarines.

There's no rreason to peel nectarines... only reason peaches are
peeled is the fuzz, in fact the skins is what identifies them and
makes them attractive, otherwise you couldn't tell peeled nectarines
from peeled peaches. Peaches are like kiwi fruit, those you peel...
makes as much sense to peel nectarines as strawberries.

And don't bother paring away the pecker dings, unless you can explain
to me how they differ from knife dings... you'll just be wasting
fruit, and efort... in fact you'll be amplifying the blemishes... a
lot of the nutrients are in the skins.

One word: "compote"

There are no rulz... pick, choose, and refuse... compote is only
limited by ones imagination. Mine's gotta have raisins, citrus, and
booze... now go to it.

I hadn't thought of that. I've made it with rhubarb. loved it. I'll try
it with nectarines.

That's a fine idea.
Yes peel em up, sounds good.
We all know the hyde is not as tender as the meat... so yes peel them.
Otherwise if you bake them into some dish or under some cake... yule
have hulls in there...

sure.. the skins are tender enough, but not as tender as the meat.

I am sure the skins would be "gaggy" to eat.. bwwoooooaaah

Maybe try a colorful cake, like.. chocolate! with a fruity / cream
cheesy icing.
(don't forget to add butter flavored extract to the icing mix)
(don't forget to add one pack of Jello-Pudding mix to the cake batter)
