Round and juicy fruit covered with a yellowish-red velvety textured skin.
Under the skin is usually a yellow or whitish flesh containing a rough stone.

Choose peaches that are firm to the touch, but whose flesh will yield with gentle pressure.
Also look for unblemished and bruise free peaches with a warm, fragrant smell.
Avoid those which appear green or are very hard.

Peaches are highly perishable, so try to purchase only what you can use within a few days at room temperature.
Refrigeration will extend their life, by no more than a day or two.
If refrigerating - your peaches need humidity so store them in a plastic bag.
