Don’t have peach vinegar? Besides me, who does? Try balsamic or white balsamic instead.
Just ran out of red, yellow and zebrino vine-ripened tomatoes picked that morning from Lufa Farms? I’d recommend a different kind of salad, then…the next best option would be organic cherry tomatoes, but you don’t want to thin about the carbon footprint.
Tomato and Salad with Peach-Sunflower Vinaigrette
1 yellow tomato, cut in 6 wedges
1 red tomato, cut in six wedges
3 cherry tomatoes, halved
3 zebrino tomatoes (the dark-striped ones), halved
1 bunch arugula
Vinaigrette
2 tbsp peach vinegar (or balsamic or white balsamic)
5 tbsp sunflower oil (or a combination of olive oil and sunflower oil – 2 tbsp olive + 3 tbsp sunflower. I do this because I like the butteriness of my olive oil. If yours is bitter, stick to sunflower. Local company Maison Orphée is a good choice in case you didn’t get some from Ferme St-Ours in your Lufa Farms fresh basket a few weeks ago)
pinch of salt and freshly ground pepper
Directions: Whisk together dressing ingredients. Toss with arugula and tomatoes. Serve immediately.
