Peach and Tomato Salad

Serves 6

3 ripe peaches, pitted and cut into wedges

3 heirloom tomatoes, cored and cut into wedges

Kosher salt

2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

1 small red onion, halved and very thinly sliced

1 Cubano pepper, stemmed, seeded, and very thinly sliced

hot fresh chili pepper, thinly sliced

Fresh herbs, such as parsley, chervil, tarragon, and dill, for serving

Maldon sea salt, for sprinkling

Toss the peaches and tomatoes with teaspoon salt in a large bowl and let sit until juicy, about five minutes.

Meanwhile, whisk the vinegar, oil, and teaspoon salt. Add the parsley, onion, pepper, and chili to the peach mixture and toss to mix, then drizzle with the dressing and toss until evenly coated.

Spread on a serving platter and scatter herbs and Maldon salt on top.
