Preservation of fruits: shelf-stable peach puree
Fruits and vegetables are nutritious, valuable foods full of flavour. Therefore, fruits and vegetables represent an important and in many cases an under-appreciated resource that could benefit from better utilisation and exploitation in rural communities. However, in low-income countries, poor care and handling of these crops frequently result in loss of quality, especially when not consumed immediately. The shelf-stable peach puree is a simple preservation technique that permits the consumption of the product within three or four months, depending on the storage temperature. The peach puree can be used as is, or for preparing jams, jellies or fruit drinks.
