Wash before eating. Cut in half and remove pit; peel for cooking or eating if desired. Peel with a knife or vegetable paring knife or cover with boiling water, boil for 10 seconds and slip peel off. Squeeze half a lemon over sliced peaches if they are not to be eaten at once, to prevent darkening. The pit can be broken with a nut cracker and the bitter peach almond used as a flavoring.
