Nectarine


Selection Information


Usage: Eaten out of hand & in fruit salads.

Selection: Good-quality nectarines will be fairly large, have smooth, unblemished skin and will be firm but not rock-hard. Ripen nectarines at home for 2 to 3 days at room temperature until they are slightly soft along the seam. Ripe fruit will have a sweet nectarine smell that is stronger when the fruit is at room temperature.

Avoid: Avoid product that is too small, soft, pitted, bruised or has small spots of mold.

Seasonal Information


California product is available from May through September while imports are available from January through April.
