Ingredients
  1. FOR THE DRESSING
  2. 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  3. 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
  4. 1 shallot, minced
  5. 1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme
  6. 1 teaspoon honey or sugar
  7. 3/4 cup canola oil
  8. Salt and Pepper, to taste
  9. FOR THE SALAD
  10. 1 head Romaine
  11. 3 peaches, peeled, pitted and cut into 1/8s
  12. 1 cup of cherries (two handfuls), pitted and halved
  13. 1 ball of burrata
  14. 6 large leaves of fresh mint, coarsely chopped
Instructions
  1. Remove the burrata from the refrigerator thirty minutes prior to serving the salad.
  2. In a medium bowl, place mustard, vinegar, shallot, thyme, honey, and canola oil. Whisk until thoroughly combined. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  3. In a large salad bowl, place the torn lettuce leaves, sliced peaches, and cherries. Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and gently toss with your hands or serving spoons until the ingredients are covered and the dressing is evenly distributed. Arrange the salad on a large platter or in a large shallow serving bowl. Place the burrata in the middle of the platter, and sprinkle the mint over the salad.
  4. To serve, cut the burrata in quarters and divide the salad among four plates.
