Golden blush in color and delightfully flavor-packed, ripe summer peaches are truly a "seasonal" treat. Or are they? While it may seem a far cry from winter, the weather will eventually turn cold, leaving most summer joys far behind. With a little planning - and the help of your freezer - the juicy sweetness of summertime peaches can be enjoyed by you and your family year 'round. By freezing fresh peaches now, anyone can savor the great taste of a warm, fresh baked peach tart, pie or cobbler on a cold winter day. Freezing is the perfect way to preserve the nutrients, color and fresh taste of harvest-time peaches. Why not take advantage of this season's abundant crop by visiting a nearby roadside stand, farmers' market or local supermarket? With minimal preparation, you'll be ready to freeze! Before packing the peaches to freeze, wash them under cold water (be sure to choose well-ripened fruit and handle with care to avoid bruising). To peel, submerge the peaches for 30 seconds in boiling water, then plunge them into ice water so the skin can be removed easily. After removing the skin, slice the peaches in halves or in sections, removing the stones. Then, place them in a mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, thoroughly mix 23 cup sugar and 14 teaspoon ascorbic acid for each quart of fruit Sprinkle the sugar-ascorbic acid mixture over the peaches and toss to make sure each fruit section is coated. Allow the peaches to stand until the sugar dissolves (about ten minutes). T P ' II mi m if W r I ,y..i. w . ..v. . ., A While waiting for the sugar to dissolve, you'll want to label several freezer bags - the clear, recloseable zippered bags have an easy-to-use write on label that allows you to label and date everything you freeze. It's always a good idea to freeze peaches, and other, sliced or chopped fruit in amounts called for in your favorite recipes. For instance, the "Freeform Peach Almond Tart" (recipe follows) requires 3 cups sliced, frozen peaches. A quart size freezer bag will hold this quantity nicely. Gallon size bag are more suitable for bulk freezing. To freeze, place the peaches in several freezer bags, press out as much air as possible and seal the zipper, leaving a 1-inch opening. Then, press out any remaining air with your hands before sealing completely. Fresh frozen peaches will keep in your freezer for 6 to 8 months. Fresh frozen peaches transformed into a warm, flaky tart simply can't be beat. "Freeform Peach Almond Tart" is a sure-fire crowd pleaser.
