Notes
- You want peaches that are ripe but still slightly firm. If they're too soft, they'll fall apart on the skewers. Look for peaches that have a little give when gently squeezed but aren't mushy. If your peaches are underripe, pop them in a paper bag for a day or two to speed up the ripening process.
- Add some prosciutto or salami for a salty kick.
- Look for a good-quality balsamic that's thick and syrupy.
