Description:
Don’t let this pale face fool you. The White Nectarine has a sweeter, more luscious flavor than its yellow-fleshed brother. Why so sweet? The white fruit has lower acid levels than the yellow varieties. When ripe, a White Nectarine has practically no tartness to its juicy, creamy texture. The White Nectarine’s flesh is pinkish-white turning red near the stone. Take care when cooking due to the high sugar levels, and when serving fresh let their honey taste speak for itself. In addition to more traditional uses, you can gently toss sliced or halved white Nectarines in a pan over low to medium heat and add a sweet note to meat or poultry dishes.
