Tips for perfectly grilled peaches

Make sure the griddle is very hot so the peaches brown quickly without losing too much of their texture.

Drain the peaches well before grilling to encourage browning and prevent excess liquid in the pan.

For an even greater temperature contrast, serve the yogurt straight from the fridge and add the peaches while they are still warm.

You can also prepare the yogurt mixture in advance and keep it refrigerated until you are ready to assemble the dish.
