I love the Nectarines!

The best tasting fruit right now, hands down is nectarines!  Whether you like the traditional yellow flesh nectarines or the newer white flesh nectarines, you will appreciate the full flavor and taste of summer that these nectarines provide for you and your family. 

If you are not familiar with white flesh nectarines which are really not that new as they have been around for thousands of years (nectarines originated in China nealry 2000 years ago) and you are looking for a sweeter milder tasting piece of fruit, the white nectarine is for you.  They are also sometimes referred to as sub acid, which means they are lower in acid.  With lower acid levels they can also be sweeter as you are able to taste more of the sugar.

This year is shaping up to be a good year for fresh healthy fruit so please check back for my recommendations each week.

Thank goodness I found your blog. your advice about white nectarines will help me to try the white. I always thought they wouldn't be as sweet as the yellow.

I am glad I could help, let me know what you think once you have tried them.

I'm taking advantage of the good deals on nectarines, blueberries and Stonyfield yogurt this week, and make our favorite dessert (or breakfast)...diced nectarines, blueberries, and a touch of cinnamon stirred into vanilla yogurt...light, refreshing, and delicious!
