nope I wouldn't. The skin is pretty thin anyway. I made apricot jam and stewed some just a couple of weeks ago and left the skin on them all.
Nope, just give them a rinse and away they go!
Beware the stone for little little ones when eating them whole, but DD (3) eats them like they are going out of fashion and never has an issue.
thanks gals! wasn't sure... ooooo apricot jam might be next!
I freeze halved apricots...the kids love them frozen on a hot day :)
Make a 'x' in their bottoms, drop them in boiling water for 60 seconds, then blanch in icey water. The skin should peel straght off, leaving the apricot flesh firm :)
terrific ideas!!! was thinking of dehydrating some too... we have kilos and kilos of them!
