Burrata Salad with Peaches, Pickled Pepper and Pea Tendrils

This summery salad from chef Ori Menashe will become your go-to this season. It’s sweet and savory, tart, crisp and creamy, rich and refreshing, all in perfect balance.

Preparation: 30 Minutes Total Time: 1 Hour 45 Minutes Yield: Serves 4

Ingredients

PICKLED PEPPER

1 banana pepper or cubanelle pepper, seeded and thinly sliced into rings
2/3 cup Champagne vinegar
2 teaspoons kosher salt

DRESSING

2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons minced shallot
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons grapeseed oil
Kosher salt
Pepper

SALAD

Two 6-ounce balls of burrata cheese, patted dry and halved
1/2 cup small mint leaves
8 cups pea tendrils (4 1/2 ounces)
1 cup small purslane sprigs
Kosher salt
Pepper
1 large, ripe yellow peach, pitted and cut into 12 wedges
1/2 yellow peach

How to Make It

Step 1 Make the pickled pepper

Place the pepper rings in a small heatproof bowl. In a small saucepan, boil the vinegar and salt, stirring, until the salt dissolves; pour over the pepper rings. Let stand at room temperature for 90 minutes. Drain.

Step 2 Meanwhile, make the dressing

In a small bowl, combine the vinegar and shallot and let stand for 30 minutes. Slowly whisk in both oils until incorporated. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 3 Make the salad

In a food processor, puree 1 ball of burrata until smooth and spreadable. Spread the burrata puree in shallow bowls. In a medium bowl, toss the mint, pea tendrils, purslane and pickled pepper rings with the dressing. Season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Mound the salad in the bowls. Tear the remaining burrata into small pieces and arrange in the salads along with the peach wedges.

Make Ahead

The drained pickled pepper rings can be refrigerated for 1 week.

Suggested Pairing

Pair this salad with a minerally, strawberry-scented rosé.

Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis….her personal Baked Bean Recipe

The Legacy of Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy

Throughout her life, Jacqueline Kennedy sought to preserve and protect America’s cultural heritage. The results of her work are still visible in Lafayette Square, across from the White House in Washington, D.C. While she was first lady, she helped to stop the destruction of historic buildings along the square, including the Renwick Building, now part of the Smithsonian Institution. In New York City, she led a campaign to save and renovate Grand Central Station. Today, more than 500,000 people pass through each day and enjoy its restored beauty, thanks to her efforts.

Jacqueline Kennedy captivated the nation and the rest of the world with her intelligence, beauty, and grace. With a deep sense of devotion to her family and country, she dedicated herself to raising her children and to making the world a better place through art, literature, and a respect for history and public service….she was a wonderful cook and below is a favorite recipe.

Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis’ Baked Beans
4 cups dry navy beans
1 small onion, chopped
1/4 pound salt pork, diced
3/4 cup brown sugar or molasses
1/2 cup catsup
1 teaspoon dry mustard
2 tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 cup boiling water
1/4 pound salt pork, cut into strips

Cover beans with water in a saucepan. Bring slowly to a boil or soak overnight.

Drain beans. Cover with fresh water and simmer slowly. When skins of beans start to burst, the beans are sufficiently cooked. Drain and add onion, salt pork, sugar, catsup, mustard, salt, Worcestershire and boiling water.
