Questions about Dried peach
Do you need to soak dried peaches before eating them?
No; they’re ready to eat. For a softer texture, cover them with warm water for 20–30 minutes, then drain and use the soaking liquid in porridge or a sauce.
How do you use dried peaches in baking?
Snip them into small pieces and fold them into scones, oat bars or a fruit cake. If they’re very firm, soak them briefly first so they don’t draw moisture from the bake.
How should you store dried peaches once the packet is open?
Keep them in an airtight container in a cool, dry cupboard, away from sunlight. If they become damp, smell fermented or show mould, discard them.
What goes well with dried peaches?
Their sweet-tart flavour works with porridge, yoghurt, nuts and cheese, especially sharp cheeses. Add chopped pieces to couscous or a tagine for a fruity contrast to savoury spices.
Can you substitute dried apricots for dried peaches?
Yes: use them in the same quantity in baking, porridge and stews. Dried apricots are slightly lower in energy, at 241 kcal per 100 g compared with 239 kcal in dried peaches.
Are dried peaches a source of fibre?
Yes. A 30 g handful provides 2.5 g of fibre, making them a handy addition to porridge or a snack mix.
Do dried peaches contain much iron?
They are a source of iron: a 30 g handful provides 1.2 mg. Pair them with fruit rich in vitamin C, such as fresh berries, to help your body absorb iron from plant foods.
