Do you have the recipe for the Peach Galette on the front page?
That’s a yellow peach galette, and you can use my white peach frangipane galette recipe using yellow peaches.
Have you made Peach Caprese? In my opinion it is better than the Tomato Caprese. Sliced peaches with slices of mozzarella topped with Balsamic syrup and torn basil. Delicious!
No! Maybe I’ll do that this week, I’ve got plenty of peaches left.
