Balsamic Peach Salad

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup aged balsamic vinegar
• 1/3 cup olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• Salt to taste
• Pinch of cayenne
• 2 large ripe peaches, cut into 1-inch chunks
• 6 cups bitter greens such as baby arugula, frisee, or other field greens

Directions:

1. Combine the dressing ingredients in a mixing bowl, and whisk to combine.
2. Add the peach chunks and toss to coat.
3. Let sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes.
4. Divide the greens between 4 chilled salad plates.
5. Spoon the peach balsamic mixture over the four salads and serve immediately.
6. Note: this salad recipe should not be made ahead as the peaches will absorb to much dressing and breakdown.
7. Mix before serving.
