Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 medium lemon, juiced, divided
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 teaspoons clover honey
salt
1 pinch dry mustard
¼ cup white sugar
1 tablespoon water
½ cup walnuts, roughly chopped
salt
1 firm-ripe peach
1 firm-ripe avocado. halved
4 ounces crumbled blue cheese, or more to taste
4 cups baby spinach

Steps:

  • Reserve 1/2 teaspoon of lemon juice. Whisk the rest with brown sugar and vinegar until sugar dissolves. Add olive oil, honey, 1 pinch salt, and mustard. Whisk until dressing is thoroughly emulsified; set aside.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Mix white sugar and water in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Heat, without stirring, until sugar has melted and is just beginning to change color, 2 to 3 minutes. Add walnuts and stir to coat; turn mixture out onto the parchment paper. Season lightly with salt and allow to cool.
  • Fill a medium-sized pot with enough water to submerge peach. Bring to a boil; add peach. Boil for 1 minute and turn off heat. Let sit for another minute; remove peach from water with a spider or slotted spoon. Place onto a folded towel to cool.
  • Cut each avocado half into 8 slices using a small knife. Carefully remove skin. Brush avocado slices with the reserved lemon juice.
  • Peel the loosened skin from the peach, taking care not to squash the flesh, and discard. Cut into 16 even slices. Carefully pry out 1 slice; remove the remaining slices from the pit. Trim away any hard bits of the stone that adhere to the center of the slices.
  • Crack and separate any of the cooled candied walnuts that have stuck together. Toss them with the crumbled blue cheese.
  • Divide spinach over 4 salad plates. Arrange peach and avocado on top in alternating and partially overlapping slices, forming a ring. Spoon the blue cheese-walnut mixture into the middle of each ring. Drizzle the dressing over the salads.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe avocados: Make sure your avocados are perfectly ripe, yielding to gentle pressure when squeezed. Unripe avocados will be hard and bitter, while overripe avocados will be mushy and brown.
  • Use fresh, seasonal peaches: Sweet, juicy peaches are the perfect complement to creamy avocados. Choose peaches that are ripe but still firm, with no bruises or blemishes.
  • Add some crunch: To add texture and contrast to your salad, consider adding some crunchy elements, such as chopped nuts, seeds, or crumbled bacon.
  • Make it a main course: This avocado salad can easily be turned into a main course by adding some grilled chicken, fish, or shrimp.
  • Experiment with different dressings: The dressing in this recipe is a simple vinaigrette, but you can easily experiment with different dressings to find one that you love. A creamy ranch dressing or a tangy citrus dressing would both be delicious.
