Well, the peaches kept on coming. For a self sown tree it is amazing. Unfortunately, a lot had the dreaded Guava Bud Moth in them but we eventually froze 38 x one litre packs of lightly stewed peaches, ate a lot more and gave lots away to family and friends.
The above photos are back to front as the peaches are frozen in the 1 litre containers then removed and vacuum packed. This way we can fit 18 in the small drawer of our upright freezer.
As we had excess bananas we decided to freeze some for use in smoothies. It was my first time freezing bananas and has worked well. These are also in vacuum pack bags.
How nice to have all that in the freezer. I aim to plant more Peach trees this summer.
ReplyDeleteDon't know how many trees you have. It took us all our time processing the fruit from just the one self sown peach after eating a lot fresh and giving lots away.
DeleteThat's an amazing amount of peaches. You're going to enjoy them for a long time to come. Wonderful
ReplyDeleteWe both have fruit on our porridge in the mornings and I have it with yoghurt for lunch. These are so much tastier than the tinned ones.
DeleteFresh peaches..bliss!!
ReplyDeleteA lot were used in smoothies as well as eaten fresh.
