Biting into a perfectly ripe peach is one of my summer highlights, and I wait all year for that first good one. Once they are here, I can’t get enough and often enjoy them sliced as they are or sat hunched over in the garden with the juice running down my arm to my elbow (totally worth it). When I get a good batch, I roast them – they look like pretty sweets, and I especially enjoy peeling off the skin when it’s wrinkling at the sides. Peaches and pavlovas are a gorgeous match, and a constant classic. Make this for friends or for a picnic spread, and keep extra peaches for later, so you can eat them in the sun.
