Ingredients
  

2 ripe heirloom tomatoes, sliced into 1/4-inch thick rounds

2 ripe peaches, sliced into wedges

8 oz fresh burrata cheese, torn into large pieces

1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, torn for garnishing

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 tablespoon balsamic glaze

Sea salt, to taste

Freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

Optional: 1/4 cup toasted pine nuts for an extra crunch

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: Begin by thoroughly washing the heirloom tomatoes and peaches under cold water. Slice the tomatoes into 1/4-inch thick rounds, ensuring even cuts for a uniform look, and slice the peaches into wedges.

    Assemble the Salad: On a large, flat serving platter, artistically arrange the tomato slices and peach wedges in an overlapping circular pattern. This presentation will captivate your guests and enhance the visual appeal of the dish.

      Add Burrata: Gently tear the burrata cheese into sizeable pieces and nestle them in the center of the beautifully arranged tomatoes and peaches. The creaminess of the burrata will beautifully complement the fresh, juicy flavors.

        Add Fresh Basil: Evenly scatter the torn basil leaves over the entire arrangement of tomatoes, peaches, and burrata, infusing the salad with a delightful aroma and herbal flavor.

          Drizzle Olive Oil & Balsamic Glaze: Using a small spoon or a drizzle bottle, carefully drizzle the extra virgin olive oil and balsamic glaze over the salad. This step will enrich the dish with both richness and a hint of sweetness from the balsamic.

            Season: Sprinkle sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper over the salad to taste, enhancing the natural flavors of the tomatoes, peaches, and burrata.

              Optional Garnish: For a textural contrast, consider sprinkling toasted pine nuts over the top. This will add a delightful crunch and an extra layer of flavor.

                Serve Immediately: This salad is best enjoyed fresh. Serve it immediately to savor the vibrant flavors at their peak.
