Grilled Peach Melba [Recipe]

Recipes

Jump to Recipe

I was excited to get peaches in my CSA so that I could make a classic recipe that brings back memories of my childhood. My family used to love making peach melba with vanilla ice cream and raspberry sauce.

Back then, we used canned peaches, but now adult-me knows there are more gourmet variations of fruit. One of these is grilled fruit, which combines summery fresh food with a summery method of cooking. Warm fruit is just sweet and soothing … it’s nostalgic, even if you’ve never had it before.Grilled Peach Melba So I took my peaches and put them on the grill. And once they were soft and warm, I added some vanilla gelato – because the only thing better than ice cream is gelato.Grilled Peach Melba

And to add to the Italian flair, I added some pomegranate balsamic that I had self-imported from Italy last year. Mouthwatering, isn’t it?Grilled Peach Melba The warm peaches with the cold gelato, added with the natural sweetness of peaches and the infused sweetness of the flavored balsamic – this dish is to die for.
