Canned peaches

These gorgeous, fragrant fruits, with juicy flesh and velvety skin, are a favorite treat of many people. China is considered the birthplace of sweet peaches, but they are popular around the world. When fresh, they are an excellent dessert even without any additives, and if you serve them with sweet cottage cheese, cream cheese, fatty cream or vanilla sauce, you get a truly exquisite treat, which hardly anyone will refuse.

In the cold season in our country, it is quite problematic to get juicy fruits, so canned peaches come to the rescue, which remarkably preserve the tender taste, bright aroma and a considerable amount of the beneficial properties of fresh fruits. Today, stores have a fairly rich range of canned peaches - from small jars to cans of huge sizes from various manufacturers. What to choose is a personal matter.

Of course, every cook has a lot of recipes with canned peaches. By the way, in this form, these fruits perfectly replace fresh fruits in all kinds of sweet dishes: cakes, cakes, pies, gourmet desserts, snacks and fruit salads. And unlike fresh peaches, a can of canned fruits is always at hand, so you can treat yourself and your loved ones with such meals at any time of the year.

In addition, it is easy to cook canned peaches at home. Especially when the choice of fresh fruits is great and the price is acceptable. You can independently adjust the amount of sugar used, respectively, and the saturation of the syrup. Undoubtedly, the less granulated sugar you add, the lower the calorie content of the canned peaches will be. And if you cook fruits in your own juice, you get an excellent dietary product.

Many healthy food devotees wonder how much is left healthy in peaches after the conservation process and whether their nutritional value is much different. The calorie content of canned peaches is not very different from the fresh product - about 40 kcal per 100 grams. But the presence of useful elements is due to the method of preservation - the lower the temperature, the more useful substances remain in peaches and vice versa. Therefore, it is best to harvest peaches at a temperature no higher than 100 degrees.
