I’m keen on freestone peaches. I’m also keen on this shortcake, which comes together quickly. The simple recipe is a great showcase for just about any summer fruits and the little zip of ginger adds a nice dimension.
Cooks' Note
When buying peaches I generally look for freestones. In these varieties, the flesh does not cling to the pit, whereas cling peaches have flesh that does cling and are thus harder to pit.
