Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 4 ripe peaches, sliced
  • 1 ball of burrata cheese
  • 2 cups arugula
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves
  • 1/4 cup toasted pine nuts
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp honey
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Start by washing and slicing the peaches into thin wedges. If the peaches are not overly sweet, you can toss them with a teaspoon of honey to enhance their natural sweetness.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the arugula and fresh basil leaves. Drizzle with a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil and gently toss to coat the greens lightly.
  3. Arrange the sliced peaches on top of the greens. Tear the burrata cheese into small pieces and place them over the peaches. Sprinkle the toasted pine nuts evenly over the salad.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, remaining olive oil, honey, salt, and pepper. Drizzle this mixture over the salad just before serving.
  5. This salad is best enjoyed fresh, so serve it immediately after assembling to enjoy the creamy texture of the burrata and the crispness of the greens.

Notes

Opt for fragrant and slightly soft peaches. If burrata is unavailable, use fresh mozzarella. Toast pine nuts in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden brown. Store components ahead of time but assemble the salad just before serving for best results.
