Nectarines can come in a variety of colours. From red to bright orange skins with white, yellow or red flesh. Most commonly found in Australia are yellow and white ones.  White nectarines have less acidity and are slightly sweeter than yellow nectarines. Some people prefer the honey like sweetness of white nectarines, while I prefer the slightly tangy flavours of yellow nectarines.  When both are in season, salads with nectarines are fantastic. They add sweetness, crunch and colour.
