    WHITE PEACH SALAD INGREDIENTS ON A BLACK PATTERNED PLATE WITH PLUMS AND MINT ON THE SIDE

    Did you know that that peaches are considered a symbol of good luck, protection, and longevity in China?  Both plums and white peaches are classed as drupes or stone fruits as they have a stone in the middle.

    Let’s Talk Ingredients & Substitutions 

    • White peaches - so much sweeter and the star of the show, can be replaced with nectarines or yellow peaches.
    • Plums - choose your favourites with over 20 varieties and a panorama of colours to choose from.
    • Mint - for its beautiful aroma you can easily replaced with basil instead.
    • Honey - for some added sweetness can easily be replaced with maple syrup to make it vegan or even a keto friendly syrup
    • Fresh lime juice - adds a delightful zing and makes a wonderful contrast to the sweetness of the fruit and honey. You can easily substitute with fresh lemon juice instead.

    Tips & Questions

    What To Serve With It

    White Peach Salad is sensational on its own but if you’re looking to add some creaminess serve it with some double cream or crème fraîche, ice cream, whipped ricotta or yoghurt. 

    Can I Make It Ahead?

    This salad can be made several hours in advance and kept chilled in the fridge until ready to serve. Just add the mint and toss through just before serving.

    What Can I Do With The Leftovers?

    This white peach salad is still great if kept in the fridge even after a few days. 

    But if you are looking to add some variety, it can be used as a topping for pancakes just dice the fruit up to use in the batter without the juices.

    Or dice up the fruit and stir it through softened vanilla ice cream with some roasted nuts such as almonds and freeze to preserve enjoy at as a fruity icecream later time.

    Are white peaches better than yellow?

    White peaches don’t have as much acid as the yellow ones and are therefore so much sweeter. They also have a smoother texture than the yellow ones.

    Choosing white peaches and plums 

    Look for plums and white peaches that give slightly to the touch. 

    Avoid ones that are hard as they will be immature and won’t develop a good flavour.

    Choose ones that are free of punctures, bruises or any signs of decay.

    White peaches should be fragrant and plums will have a rich colour and a whitish bloom.
