Steps:
- Put the water, sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla pod into a wide saucepan and heat gently to dissolve the sugar. Bring the pan to the boil and let it bubble away for about 5 minutes, then turn the heat down to a fast simmer.
- Cut the peaches in half, and if the stones come out easily then remove them, if not then you can get them out later. Poach the peach halves in the sugar syrup for about 2 to 3 minutes on each side depending on the ripeness of the fruit. Test the cut side with the sharp point of a knife to see if they are soft, and then remove them to a plate with a slotted spoon.
- When all the peaches are poached, peel off their skins and let them cool (then you can remove any remaining stones). If you are making them a day in advance then let the poaching syrup cool and then pour into a dish with the peaches. Otherwise just bag up the syrup and freeze it for the next time you poach peaches.
- To make the raspberry sauce, liquidize the raspberries, confectioners' sugar, and lemon juice in a blender or a food processor. Sieve to remove the pits and pour the puree into a jug.
- To assemble the Peach Melba, allow 2 peach halves per person and sit them on each plate alongside a scoop or 2 of ice cream. Spoon the raspberry sauce over each.
PEACH MELBA SPLIT
Classic Peach Melba calls for cooked peaches and a pureed raspberry sauce. We simplified and summerfied our split: We top ripe, juicy summer peaches with fresh raspberries sweetened with a bit of jam, and vanilla frozen yogurt. Crushed shortbread cookies add some crunch.

It's simple to prepare a memorable dessert for just you and someone else. Straight from our Test Kitchen, this yummy classic features fresh peaches and a super delicious raspberry sauce for drizzling. Idea: An easy way to peel peaches is to lower them into boiling water and cook them for 2 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon; cool slightly and remove skin with a knife. Poaching peaches in syrup is a great way to soften peaches that are not yet ripe.

NOT-SO-CLASSIC PEACH MELBA
A classic peach Melba is a dessert of poached peach halves and raspberry sauce with vanilla ice cream, invented by the French chef Auguste Escoffier, and named after the Australian soprano Nellie Melba. This not-so-classic version calls for sliced ripe peaches instead of cooked peach halves. Look for the best vanilla ice cream, with real vanilla, or make your own. Easy to assemble, it's a lovely, refreshing and elegant dessert, perfect for when peaches and raspberries are in season.

FRESH PEACH MELBA COFFEE CAKE (BUCKLE)
This recipe came out in this month's Family Circle. I just made it, and I thought it was delicious. I used fresh peaches, and everyone thought it was very tasty. I don't know if I would call it a coffee cake or a cobbler. We ate it similar to a cake for dessert (in slices). According to Family Circle, "this fruit-filled dessert buckles as it bakes, hence the name". I used black raspberry preserves. I also used a bit more than the recipe called for- but this is just a personal preference. It was easier to just use the rest of an already opened jar. I ended up covering the edges with foil about 3/4 the way though its baking time because they browned a bit faster than the middle (like a pie). It thought it was almost better the second day when the cake had soaked up more of the fruit. It is SO GOOD! Try it!!
