Peach 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 peach varieties compare.

Variety	Best for
Yellow	Baking, grilling, and jam: golden flesh, rich and tangy; the classic peach.
White	Fresh eating and salads: pale flesh, sweeter and low in acid; bruises easily.
Freestone	Slicing and baking: flesh separates cleanly from the stone, quick to prep.
Clingstone	Canning and early-season eating: flesh grips the stone, juicy and firm.
Donut (Saturn)	Snacking and fruit platters: flat and small with sweet white flesh and a tiny pit.

Which should I pick?

For baking, grilling, and eating fresh, a freestone yellow peach is the easiest pick: the flesh pulls cleanly from the stone and the flavour is rich and tangy. Clingstone peaches match them for flavour but need cutting around the pit, which is why they mostly go to canning. White peaches are sweeter and lower in acid, best raw in salads and desserts, and a donut (Saturn) peach is the neat one-hand snack.
