=======================================
Update:
I had this for supper last night, and it was wonderful! The peaches really added a great touch to it which was totally unexpected both as an ingredient, and to my pallet, and though they were unexpected they really were the jewel in the crown! From the first bite with peach in it on the end of the meal it was like finding a hidden treasure each time I had a bite with peach in it. It was so very delightful that I'm going to have to have it again. I know it will change the flavour a bit, but I think next time I might try it subbing brown rice for the orzo. I have an excessive amount of brown rice owning to having found a really great sale on it, and hopefully this will be something I can use some of it on. The texture will be similar, but flavour, not so much.
If I might make a recommendation, I would like to say that if you can get a hold of peaches grown in western Colorado, get them! They have the best flavour of any peach on the North American continent, and the colour is amazing! If they are from the eastern or southern part of the state they will not taste as good. I'm sure it has to do with the soil. They usually come available in August and September, and sometimes you'll see a few start trickling into the stores in late July. I was afraid we might not see any again this year, but with the borders back open they have been showing up. The ones grown in the right area of Colorado have a deep burgundy colour with a patch of the usual yellow and peach (of course) on shaded side. When you cut them open you'll find that they are juicier than most other peaches. If they are from that area, the stone will also have that deep burgundy red colour which the outside has. ... 3
