RECIPE

Peach Salad with Maytag Blue Cheese, Raisins, and Pecans

John Mooney

Bell Book & Candle, NYC

A vinaigrette made with peach juice adds extra summery flair to this simple salad.

Yield: 4 servings

Method:

Mix the vinegar and the peach juice together in a small bowl. Whisk in the lemon olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Combine the greens, blue cheese, pecans, raisins, and diced peaches in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad; toss gently until the ingredients are evenly dispersed. Divide the salad among chilled salad plates. Garnish with peach slices.
