Notes

  • This Nectarine Tomato Burrata Salad works best with ripe but firm nectarines, mixed tomato varieties, and burrata that’s lightly salted and dressed right before serving so the greens stay crisp and the flavors stay bright.
  • For the best results, use a mix of heirloom and cherry tomatoes, season the burrata with a pinch of salt and pepper, and keep the hot honey dressing separate until serving to avoid a soggy salad.
  • This salad is easy to customize: swap arugula for other tender greens, use peaches instead of nectarines, change up the nuts, or add grilled chicken, shrimp, or steak to turn it into a full meal.
