It 's my favorite time of year with all the luscious, summery fruit available and peaches and nectarines are some of my favorites! Have you ever been peach picking? There is NOTHING like eating a peach picked straight from the tree and having all of the juices drip down your chin-so good! I love making a great mango salsa but if I can use the bounty of the season, I will. This would be a great accompaniment to any summer feast. If you're having a picnic or bbq just set a nice bowl of this out and your guests will pile it on their plates! YEILDS: 2-3 cups
INGREDIENTS
3 peaches (I used white) finely chopped
2 nectarines (I used yellow) finely chopped
1 red bell pepper (finely chopped)
1 medium jalapeno pepper (minced)
1/2 cup red onion (finely diced)
juice of 1 orange
juice of 3 limes
1/2 cup finely chopped cilantro
2 Tbsp chiffonade fresh mint (don't skimp on this!)
1 tsp fine sea salt
few sprinkles of cayenne if you want more heat
If using white peaches try to use yellow nectarines and vice versa. It's nice to have the juxtaposition in flavor and aesthetics. Add everything to a bowl and simply lightly toss with a spoon to make sure everything is coated evenly. Check for seasoning as you should be able to taste each individual ingredient. Adjust accordingly and enjoy!
