PEACH CAPRESE SALAD

During summer, I like to use the fresh ingredients I receive weekly from my local food share, and that's how I created this peach Caprese salad. I use large balls of mozzarella torn into pieces, but you could use smaller mozzarella pearls. -Mounir Echariti, Mendham, New Jersey

Tips:

  • Select ripe and flavorful peaches: Choose peaches that are fragrant, have a slight give when pressed, and are free of bruises or blemishes.
  • Use fresh mozzarella cheese: Fresh mozzarella adds a creamy, milky flavor to the salad. If you can't find fresh mozzarella, you can substitute it with burrata or goat cheese.
  • Make your own balsamic cherries: The balsamic cherries add a sweet and tangy flavor to the salad. To make them, simply simmer cherries in balsamic vinegar and water until they are plump and juicy.
  • Use a good quality balsamic vinegar: The balsamic vinegar is a key ingredient in the salad, so make sure to use a good quality one. Look for a balsamic vinegar that is aged for at least 12 years.
  • Serve the salad immediately: The salad is best enjoyed immediately after it is made. The peaches and mozzarella will start to wilt if they sit for too long.

Conclusion:

Peach Caprese Salad with Balsamic Cherries is a refreshing and flavorful salad that is perfect for a summer meal. The sweet peaches, creamy mozzarella, and tangy balsamic cherries come together to create a delicious and satisfying dish. This salad is also very easy to make, so it's a great option for a busy weeknight meal.
