A simple and elegant salad featuring grilled peaches, creamy burrata cheese, and a tangy-sweet balsamic reduction. Perfect for a fresh summer meal or light starter.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 ripe but firm peaches, halved and pitted
  • 8 ounces (about 225 grams) burrata cheese
  • 4 cups (about 100 grams) baby arugula or mixed greens, washed and dried
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
  • Sea salt to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • A handful of fresh basil leaves, torn

Instructions

  1. Prepare the balsamic reduction by pouring 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar and 1 tablespoon honey into a small saucepan. Simmer gently over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until thickened and syrupy, about 10-12 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
  2. Wash and halve the peaches, removing pits carefully. Brush each peach half lightly with about 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil.
  3. Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes until hot.
  4. Place peach halves cut-side down on the grill pan. Grill for 3-4 minutes without moving to get char marks. Flip and grill for another 2-3 minutes until tender but not mushy. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  5. In a large bowl, toss baby arugula or mixed greens with 1 tablespoon olive oil, a pinch of sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Arrange greens on a serving platter or plates.
  6. Cut grilled peaches into slices or quarters and arrange over the greens. Tear or slice burrata cheese and place atop the salad.
  7. Drizzle the cooled balsamic reduction generously over the salad. Sprinkle flaky sea salt and freshly ground black pepper on top. Garnish with torn fresh basil leaves.
  8. Serve immediately to enjoy the contrast between warm peaches and cool burrata.

Notes

Pat peaches dry if extra juicy before grilling to avoid steam. Stir balsamic reduction occasionally to prevent burning. If too thick after cooling, add a teaspoon of water to loosen. Let burrata sit at room temperature a few minutes before serving for best texture.
