Shaved frozen peaches

Shaved frozen peaches

A fresh twist on the viral peaches and cream dessert.

Peach season is in full swing. And frozen shaved fruit is all the rage. So, what better way to celebrate than to combine the two?

Tangy yogurt, crunchy pistachios, sweet peaches and the essential golden drizzle to elevate all the textures and flavours. It's only 4 ingredients and takes less than 10 minutes to assemble, making it the perfect summer breakfast or snack.

Here's the method:

Makes one serving

Place you peaches in the freezer (whole) and leave for at least 3 hours.
Roughly chop your pistachios and set aside for later.
Once the peaches are frozen you can assemble your bowl.
First, add a good dollop of yogurt.
Then, using a fine grater, grate your frozen peach onto your yogurt. This can be a little cold on your fingers so watch out!
Lastly top with your chopped pistachios and a good drizzle of EVOO (we recommend the Greek) and add a drizzle of honey if you'd like a little extra sweetness.

How to make it your own:

If you don't like peaches you can swap for a different fruit, such as nectarine or mango. This works best for a fruit with a slightly lower water content, so we'd recommend avoiding things like strawberries to minimise the mess!

FAQs about olive oil brands and quality

They certainly can be! But it’s always important to consider why they’re expensive. If the higher price reflects early harvest olives, small-batch production, regenerative farming, and fair wages for farmers, then yes – you're likely getting a high-quality product that’s better for your health, the environment, and the industry. But sometimes, the price tag just reflects good branding and fancy packaging. Always look for real indicators of quality like harvest date, origin transparency, proper packaging, and clear production practices to know if it’s truly worth the splurge.
The best way to tell if you have a bottle of real extra virgin olive oil—and not just labeled that way—is to look for transparency and pay close attention to the details. Quality EVOO will list a harvest date (not just an expiration date), come in a dark glass or tin container, and specify the origin. Avoid vague blends and flashy marketing claims without substance. And most importantly, taste it: legitimate extra virgin olive oil should be fruity, bitter and peppery—not flat or greasy. Your palate is often the best judge
One of the biggest culprits is the term ‘first cold pressed’, which might sound impressive but doesn't define the modern extra virgin olive oil making process or the product's quality. Also look for the harvest date. If you only see an expiration or “best before”, it's more likely the olive oil quality isn't as good. Also pay attention to vague origins like ‘EU blend’. While this might sound romantic, it's a strong indicator that olive oil quality is not top notch. Long story short: true quality comes from transparency, not trendy marketing, so always look beyond branding.
