I use a peeler with a serrated edge......so much easier than boiling water, ice bath, etc. I just made a peach crumb pie today and it is so easy to just peel and slice the peach. Tomatoes are another story, much easier to put into boiling water and then ice them down. That's a good idea, Margaret, particularly for peaches that might be too hard for the boiling water method. I find the boiling water simple, especially since I can use a big pot to do all the peaches at once. I can have 10 peaches peeled in about 2 minutes (once they're through the 30-second simmer), doing it this way. Thanks for your feedback - PJH
