HELPFUL TIPS:
The most effective way to peel a peach is to put it in boiling water for between 10 to 20 seconds, or until the skin splits. Pull it out with a slotted spoon and dump it into an ice water bath. After a few seconds of cooling, the skin will slip right off. You can also use a paring knife to peel the skin off, but you might take some of the flesh of the peach away with it.
If you prefer the dressing to be a bit sweeter, add more honey to the blender. For a spicier kick, add extra red cayenne pepper to the mixture.
If the dressing is too thick for your liking, thin it out with up to 2 tablespoons of water or more cider.
