Recipe FAQ
You do not need to peel the peaches. I like to rub the fuzz off before washing and slicing, but that is optional.
Peaches are stone fruits which means they are picked hard and they ripen and soften with age. You can speed up the process by placing the peaches in a brown paper bag on your counter.
The jalapenos add the heat. For a mild salsa remove the membrane and seeds, but leave them in for a hot salsa. You can also add chili powder or red pepper flakes to amp up the heat.

This peach salsa I could just eat alone by the spoonfuls! i do love it with chips as well. the sweet with a salty chip is the best!
this is so good! we love peaches but i would never have thought to use in a salsa. Great recipe and will make again!
Can’t wait to make this! ? If I make a big batch and have leftovers, does it freeze well?
I personally haven’t tried freezing it. I am not sure it would freeze well & taste ok after. It will last in the fridge for a bit 🙂
Love this as a taco topping!
Another fruity salsa! So refreshing and perfect for a summer dish. I like how you can determine the Heat in this dish.
