Nectarine varieties and best uses

The conversions above are the same whatever variety you use; the difference is what each is good for. Here is how the common nectarine varieties compare.

Variety	Best for
Yellow	Baking, grilling, and jam: golden flesh, bright and tangy; the standard nectarine.
White	Fresh eating and salads: pale flesh, sweeter and low in acid.
Freestone	Slicing and baking: flesh separates cleanly from the stone, quick to prep.
Clingstone	Fresh eating early in the season: flesh grips the stone, juicy and firm.

Which should I pick?

For baking, grilling, and eating fresh, a freestone yellow nectarine is the easiest pick: the flesh pulls cleanly from the stone and the flavour is bright and tangy. No freestone fruit? Clingstone nectarines taste the same but need cutting around the pit. White-flesh nectarines are sweeter and lower in acid, best raw in salads and on fruit platters.
