Instructions
- Arrange the Ingredients: On a large platter, neatly arrange the sliced tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, peaches, cucumbers, grape tomatoes, red onion slices, and fresh basil leaves in an appealing pattern.
- Season the Salad: Sprinkle kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper evenly over the arranged ingredients to enhance their natural flavors.
- Drizzle with Balsamic Glaze: Carefully drizzle balsamic glaze over the entire salad for a sweet and tangy finish that complements the fresh ingredients.
- Serve Immediately: Serve the salad right away to enjoy the fresh crispness of the vegetables and fruit, ideally as a light appetizer or side dish in warm weather.
Notes
- Use ripe, in-season peaches for the best flavor.
- If balsamic glaze is unavailable, reduce balsamic vinegar until thickened as a substitute.
- This salad is best served fresh and not refrigerated for extended periods to preserve texture.
- Can be easily doubled or halved depending on the number of servings needed.
