Ingredients
Salad Ingredients
- 3 ripe peaches, pitted and sliced into sixths
- 8 ounces fresh burrata
- 3 tablespoons balsamic glaze
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Handful fresh basil leaves
- 1 small jalapeño, seeded and thinly sliced
- Sea salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Peaches: Add the sliced peaches to a large serving bowl to create the base of your salad. The peaches should be ripe and juicy to maximize flavor.
- Add the Burrata: Tear the fresh burrata cheese into pieces and evenly spread them over the sliced peaches for a creamy texture contrast.
- Drizzle Dressings: Pour the balsamic glaze and olive oil over the peaches and burrata to introduce sweet and savory notes that balance the salad.
- Garnish Salad: Top the salad with fresh basil leaves and thinly sliced jalapeños. Finish by sprinkling sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste, enhancing all the flavors.
Notes
- Use ripe, but firm peaches to ensure they hold their shape in the salad.
- The balsamic glaze adds sweetness and depth; if unavailable, reduce balsamic vinegar with sugar until thickened.
- Adjust the jalapeño quantity based on your preferred spice level.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the burrata at its creamiest texture.
