How to Dice a Peeled Peach

Now that everyone knows how easy it is to take that extra step to peel your peaches, let’s talk about dicing them. I know it sounds silly, but honestly, those peeled peaches are going to be slippery! It’s easy to cut yourself when dealing with slippery peaches, so I decided to show you all how I do it.

To dice your peeled peach, you are just going to need your peeled peaches, a paring knife, and a bowl to collect your peach pieces.

First, cut vertical lines down the peach across only half of the peach. Make them as close or far apart as you want depending on the size of the dice that you want as an outcome.

Once half the peach has been sliced vertically, rotate the peach in your hand and cut across those cuts.

At this point some of the pieces will naturally come loose from the pit.

Holding the peach over your bowl, use your thumb to push the peach pieces off the pit.

Special shout-out to Hubby for taking these photos while I was dicing my peaches!

    Lactaid is my best friend. I have spare pills in the car, in Hubby’s wallet, in my purse and desk. Can’t ever be too prepared! I have had their lactose free flavors and they’re quite tasty. I wish they had more than one a month though!

    I love the idea of using the cone method for ice cream cupcakes. I hadn’t thought of that. That strawberry down the middle of the cupcake is so perfect! I’m so glad you entered again!

    Those cupcakes look scrumptious! Oh, and you’ve gotta try Purely Decadent made with Coconut Milk Ice Cream! It’s rich and creamy, a lot like gelatto!

    I agree with you about the non-dairy ice creams available in stores. However, If you have an ice cream maker vegan chick-0-stick ice cream is unbelievably rich, creamy and delicious.

    Here is the recipe http://couldntbeparve.blogspot.com/2008/09/chick-o-stick-ice-cream_04.html

    Hey, these cupcakes sound awesome! I use to be Lactose Int., but I found the best cure ever & seriously have been L.I. cured for 7 years. I could not give up my dairy & use to take 3 Lactaid every time I ate.I heard about “Lactogen” on the radio on the way home from a trip. I would do anything to get rid of my L.I. so it was $90.00 at the time so I said what the heck I spent $200.00 a year on Lactaid. I was floored that it worked & 7 years later still no signs. I drink milk every morning, cheese everyday, & ice cream when ever. It retrains your body to except lactose, so for 42 days while you take it (a mix to drink with water) you have to stay away from all dairy & anything with dairy in it. I just went to the health food store during that time. I am sure you can find it on the web. Lactogen is the name

    This is my second post, it erased my first. But for all you suffering with Lactose Int. try Lactogen it really works I have been cured for going on 7 years now. It was only $90.00 when I tried it & I was spending $200 a year on Lactaid at the time. I now can drink milk every morning, & eat cheese every day & ice cream when ever. It is not an on going thing you take it once for 43 days & that is it.
