• 2 to 3 whole peppercorns

3. Bring the poaching liquid to a boil and cook on high heat until reduced to a syrupy texture.
4. Add the peaches and poach the fruit, spooning the syrup over them occasionally, until you can pierce the peach easily with a knife, about 5 minutes.

6. Top with ice cream, whipped cream, and drizzle with the poaching syrup.
7. Grate a little nutmeg over the top.
