The name of nectarines comes from the Greek word nectar. They ripen in summer and bring indescribable pleasure.
Nectarines are often mixed with naked peaches. They belong to the family of peaches, cherries and apricots. Unlike peaches, they have no moss. In addition, their taste is much richer.
Nectarines, like all other fruits, are eaten fresh in the first place. In cooking, they are often used in fruit salads and to flavor desserts. They are also a wonderful addition to breakfast cereals. Nectarines are used to decorate cakes and pastries.
When choosing nectarines, they should be creamy yellow in color. Redness in them is not a sign of maturity, but only a characteristic feature of some varieties. It is good to avoid bruised or injured fruit. Unlike well-ripened peaches, ripe nectarines give in to light pressure and are not as soft.
To speed up the ripening process, place the nectarines in a paper bag. So leave at room temperature, checking every day. When ripe enough, store in the refrigerator.
Cooking nectarines it happens in a variety of ways. In addition to desserts, fruit salads and cereals, they are also used in the grilling process of pork or chicken. To give the meat an indescribable taste, nectarine cut in half is added during cooking.
When cut, the fruits darken. To prevent this from happening with nectarines, they are watered with a little lemon juice.
