Tomato and nectarine salad with feta
A wonderful sweet and savoury salad, perfect for enjoying tomatoes and nectarine when they’re in their absolute prime. Paired with a classic vinaigrette and adorned with sharp and crumbly feta cheese, this is the salad I’m making on repeat right now.
Servings: 2 people
Ingredients
For the dressing
- 2 tbsp good quality extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tbsp tomato vinegar or white balsamic vinegar (you can also use white wine or red wine vinegar)
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp honey
For the salad
- 1 large and ripe heriloom tomato or 2 smaller tomatoes
- 1 large and ripe nectarine
- 40 g feta the proper stuff not that creamy Danish style variety
Instructions
- Make the dressing directly in the bowl - combine all of the ingredients and whisk vigorously until an emulsion is formed. Season to taste with a little salt and pepper.
- Wash the tomato and nectarine and cut into 1/8 wedges, then half each wedge by cutting horizontally across the middle (so you’re left with big short chunks).
- Layer the pieces of tomato and nectarine directly atop of the dressing and season the tomato and nectarine with some flaky salt.
- Finely crumble over the feta and serve immediately.
