The key characteristic of a good peach is its ripeness; to an untrained eye, all peaches look the same. Learning the brown stem rule makes picking peaches easier.
When peaches no longer have a full stem, look at the color surrounding the stem area. If there's any hint of green, that's not the peach for you.
Sweetness in peaches correlates with variety: white peaches are typically sweeter while yellow varieties are firmer. Knowing these differences enhances your peach selection experience.
There are over 300 peach varieties in the USA alone, each offering unique flavors and textures. Donut peaches stand out as especially sweet, ideal for fresh eating.
