Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 4 ripe peaches, sliced
  • 1 ball of burrata cheese
  • 4 cups arugula
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup toasted pine nuts (optional)

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Start by washing and slicing the peaches into thin wedges. If the peaches are not very 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. Toss gently to mix.
  3. Arrange the sliced peaches on top of the arugula and basil mixture. Be sure to spread them out evenly for a beautiful presentation.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the extra-virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper. Drizzle this mixture lightly over the salad.
  5. Tear the burrata cheese into large chunks and place them gently on top of the salad. The creamy texture of the burrata will complement the crisp arugula and juicy peaches perfectly.
  6. Sprinkle the toasted pine nuts over the salad for added crunch, if desired. Serve immediately to enjoy the freshness and vibrant flavors.

Notes

Opt for fragrant and slightly soft peaches for ripeness. Handle burrata gently and serve at room temperature for the best texture. Assemble the salad just before serving to prevent wilting.
