Method

Prepare the fruit: Peel the nectarines and peaches by immersing them in a large pot of boiling water for about 30 seconds; then rinse them under cold water in a colander. The skins should slip off easily. Halve the fruit, remove the stones, and cut into thick wedges, letting them fall into a large bowl and tossing them with the lemon juice to prevent discoloration
