For fear for repeating myself – sometimes the simplest things are the best things. This week’s FFwD salad is so deceptively simple:
- local strawberries
- sugar plum tomatoes
- bocchini cheese
- a chiffonade of fresh basil
- a sprinkle of fleur de sel and olive oil
and you have a taste of summer on your plate.
We’re at the end of the strawberry season already in New York so this is a great way to enjoy the last of the berries.
I think this salad was a great reminder of how fresh and simple ingredients can make delicious meals!
Agreed!
This is definitely summer on a plate! So fleeting, that strawberry season. I’m glad you got to enjoy it.
Thanks, Adriana, me too!
Simple ingredients, wonderful flavors. Looks great.
Delicious! Do you guys have tomatoes yet? I’m jealous if you do.
You must be a little south of us, because strawberries were just really taking off last weekend Upstate!
This was a perfect use for the in season berries – too bad tomatoes aren’t quite there yet.
Yes, these tomatoes definitely not local! Long Island strawberry season is basically done:(
The salad looks so cute with the bocconcini! Our strawberries here have finally started, just in time for this salad.
Thank you, Teresa! Enjoy your strawberries.
YUM, that looks like a REALLY interesting combination of flavours! 🙂
I hope you get to try out soon!
