Directions:
Peaches:

To peel, immerse peaches about 6 to 8 at a time in boiling water for 20-30 seconds or until skin starts to crack. Remove immediately and plunge into cold water (fill sink full of water and about 2-3 cups of ice). Peel should come off easily. Cut peaches in half and remove pits. Cut peaches into slices and treat with fresh fruit and let drain.

To freeze, put 2-3 cups of peaches into quart sized freezer bags. Label with # of cups and the date.

Apples:

Select varieties that are crisp, not mealy, in texture. Peel and core, then halve, quarter or slice as desired. Dip into fruit fresh and let drain.

To freeze, use a sugar or dry pack method.

Sugar method: Place a small amount of fruit in quart sized bag and sprinkle lightly with sugar; repeat layering. Cover and let stand about 15 mintues or until juicy, then seal and freeze.

Water method: Cover the fruit with water. Do not use glass jars and do not fill to close to the opening. Unsweetened fruit juice can also be used
