Ingredients
Scale
Salad Ingredients
- 8 oz burrata cheese
- 3 ripe peaches
- 4 slices prosciutto, cut into quarter pieces
- 2 tbsp fresh basil, roughly chopped
Vinaigrette
- 1 tbsp champagne vinegar (or white wine vinegar)
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- ¼ tsp sea salt (plus more to taste)
Instructions
- Prepare Peaches: Cut peaches in half, remove the pits, and then slice each half into 8 pieces to create bite-sized peach segments for the salad.
- Make Vinaigrette: In a small bowl, whisk together champagne vinegar, olive oil, and ¼ teaspoon of sea salt until well combined. Set aside to allow flavors to meld.
- Arrange Ingredients: On a serving platter, arrange the peach slices evenly and tuck the quartered prosciutto pieces around and between the peaches.
- Add Burrata and Dressing: Place the whole burrata cheese in the center or on top of the peaches, then drizzle with the prepared champagne vinaigrette.
- Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle chopped fresh basil and extra flaky sea salt over the salad. Serve immediately on its own or accompany with grilled bread for a delicious meal or appetizer.
Notes
- Use ripe but firm peaches for the best texture and flavor.
- Substitute prosciutto with pancetta or omit for a vegetarian version.
- For a syrupy sweetness boost, consider a light drizzle of honey before serving.
- Serve immediately to keep burrata fresh and peaches vibrant.
- Leftovers should be refrigerated and consumed within 1 day for best quality.
