FAQ

  • Can I use other stone fruits?

    Yes, nectarines, plums, or apricots are excellent substitutes for peaches.
  • What if I don't have balsamic glaze?

    You can reduce balsamic vinegar in a saucepan over low heat until it thickens to a glaze-like consistency. Or, use a simple syrup.
  • Can I use a different cheese?

    Mascarpone cheese or goat cheese would also be delicious alternatives to ricotta.
