Nagano Kawanakajima White Peach / 長野川中島白桃 (秀)

川中島白桃 is a late-season white peach, and it behaves differently from the soft early ones. The flesh is firm — it holds its shape when you cut it, and you can eat it with a knife and a plate instead of standing over the sink. The aroma is the strong part: you can usually smell a ripe one before you cut it.

These come from Shinshu Nakano in Nagano Prefecture, graded 秀 — the top visual grade in the Japanese system, for shape, colour and finish.

Handling is the whole game with peaches. They ship firm on purpose so they survive the trip. Leave them out at room temperature, out of the sun and not stacked on top of each other, until the shoulders near the stem give slightly under your thumb and the smell comes forward. Then chill them for an hour or two and eat them the same day. Put a hard peach straight into the fridge and it stops developing — it will stay hard and taste of very little, which is a storage problem rather than a fruit problem.

Handle them by the whole hand rather than the fingertips. A firm peach still bruises where a thumb presses, and the bruise shows up a day later.

川中島白桃係晚生嘅白桃品種，同一咬就散嗰啲軟桃唔同路。肉質結實，切開唔會即刻塌，可以斯斯文文用刀切件上碟，唔使企喺洗手盆前面食。香氣係佢最突出嗰樣 — 熟到位嗰陣，未切開都聞到。

本批嚟自日本長野縣信州中野，等級係「秀」，即日本分級入面最高嗰級外觀標準，睇果形、顏色同表面完整度。

桃最緊要係識放。出貨時特登係硬身，咁先捱得住成程運輸。收到之後擺室溫，唔好曬到太陽、唔好一個疊一個，等到近蒂位嗰兩邊膊頭用手指輕輕㩒落去有少少軟、香味出返嚟，就啱食。跟住放雪櫃凍一兩個鐘，當日食晒佢。如果一收到就掉入雪櫃，個桃就會停喺硬嗰個狀態，食落又硬又淡 — 咁係擺法問題，唔關個桃事。

攞嘅時候用成隻手托住，唔好淨係用手指捏。就算硬身，畀手指㩒親一樣會瘀，通常第二日先浮返出嚟。
