Ingredients

Scale

Dressing

  • 6 Tbsp. white balsamic vinegar
  • 1 1/2 tsp. finely grated lemon zest
  • 3/4 tsp. Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
  • 3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped shallots

Salad

  • 4 medium yellow peaches, halved lengthwise, cut into 1/4“-thick slices
  • 4 Persian cucumbers, sliced into 1/4“-thick rounds
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 2 Tbsp. thinly sliced fresh basil
  • 3/4 cup crumbled feta (about 4.5 oz.)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the dressing: In a large measuring cup, whisk together white balsamic vinegar, finely grated lemon zest, Dijon mustard, and kosher salt until combined. While continuously whisking, slowly pour in extra-virgin olive oil until the mixture is smooth and emulsified. Add finely chopped shallots and whisk again to incorporate them into the dressing.
  2. Toss the salad: Transfer half of the dressing to a large bowl. Add the sliced yellow peaches, sliced Persian cucumbers, fresh blueberries, and thinly sliced fresh basil to the bowl. Toss gently to ensure all ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing.
  3. Finish and serve: Drizzle the remaining dressing over the salad for extra flavor. Top the salad with crumbled feta cheese. Serve immediately to enjoy the freshest taste.

Notes

  • Use ripe but firm peaches for best texture.
  • Persian cucumbers are preferred for their thin skin and crunch; regular cucumbers can be used but peel if necessary.
  • Dressing can be prepared ahead and refrigerated for up to 1 day; add shallots fresh if preferred.
  • This salad is best served fresh to maintain the texture of the fruits and vegetables.
  • For a vegan version, omit feta or substitute with a plant-based cheese alternative.
