ingredients

1 large ripe peach
3 -4 small heirloom tomatoes, preferably different colors
¹⁄₂ lb green beans, ends trimmed
¹⁄₄ cup basil leaves, cut into thin strips
1 small shallot
2 tablespoons champagne vinegar
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
6 tablespoons olive oil
kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper

directions

For the salad:
Bring a medium pot of salted water to boil. Add the green beans and allow to cook until slightly tender but with some personality, about 4 minutes.
Scoop them into a large bowl of ice water.
Once they are cool, drain well. (This can be done one day ahead. Wrap them in a clean kitchen towel and refrigerate.).
Cut the peach in half and remove the pit. Cut into thin slices and add to a salad bowl.
Cut one of the tomatoes into thin slices and cut the others into wedges; add to the bowl.
Add the basil and drizzle with dressing (you won’t need all the dressing.).
For the dressing:
Finely mince the shallot. Place in a bowl or in a glass jar with a lid.
Pour in the vinegar and the lemon juice.
Add a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper.
Mix well.
Drizzle in the olive oil and whisk or shake well. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
