Like peaches, nectarines can be placed in a paper bag to speed ripening. Ingredients:
5 cups peeled nectarine slices, (about 2 3/4 lb.) |
1 cup sugar |
2 tablespoons butter |
3/4 cup slivered almonds |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Process nectarines and sugar in a food processor 30 to 45 seconds. Transfer to a large bowl; cover and chill 2 hours. 2. Melt butter over medium-low heat in a medium skillet; add almonds and salt. Cook almonds, stirring frequently, 3 to 5 minutes or until toasted and golden. Pour nut mixture through a fine wire-mesh strainer, shaking to remove excess butter and salt. Stir almonds into nectarine mixture; cover and chill until ready to use. |
