Part 3/10:
While cooling, the host demonstrates how to make a vibrant peach and thyme syrup. Ripe peaches (or nectarines, which also work well) are pitted, chopped, and combined with fresh thyme sprigs, water, and a sweetener such as maple syrup or agave (or sugar, if preferred). The mixture is boiled gently for about 20 minutes, allowing the peaches to soften and release their juices. Once cooked, the mixture is strained to separate the syrup from the peach puree, which can be stored and used later in smoothies or desserts.
