The same idea applies for other fruits and vegetables, like corn, peas, and especially peaches and pears. The trick is finding a good canned variety. Most mass produced versions from the familiar large names (Dole, Del Monte, etc. in the US) are not great. However, for example there is a smaller grocery chain near me which brands their own delicious version of canned peaches from a regional producer annually at the peak of ripeness.
- icelancer 9y agoTrader Joe's cans tomatoes and they're pretty darn good. Not sure about other fruit.
- mrob 9y agoCorn kernels and peas both freeze very well. The large surface area to volume ratio means they can freeze very quickly, which keeps the ice crystals small, so there's minimal damage to texture. They also taste closer to fresh vegetables than the canned ones do, and they're usually cheaper.
