Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 2 large 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 very ripe, handle them gently to avoid bruising.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the arugula and fresh basil leaves. Drizzle with a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil and toss gently to coat the greens lightly.
  3. Arrange the peach slices on top of the greens. Tear the burrata cheese into chunks and place it over the peaches, allowing its creamy texture to contrast with the fruit.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, honey, and remaining olive oil. Drizzle this mixture over the salad just before serving.
  5. Sprinkle the toasted pine nuts over the salad for a crunchy finish. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately to enjoy the freshness of the ingredients.

Notes

Opt for fragrant and slightly soft peaches. Handle burrata gently and serve at room temperature for the best texture. Toast pine nuts in a dry pan until golden brown, watching closely to avoid burning. Prepare components separately and assemble just before serving to keep greens crisp and burrata fresh.
