Preparation
Cube the cheese. Halve the peaches and remove the pit. Remove the skin and slice the flesh thinly.
Squeeze the juice out of the lemon and whisk with the olive oil and salt and pepper to taste to make the dressing. Using a large salad bowl, toss the Romaine lettuce with the lamb’s lettuce and half of the dressing. Divide the salad among four soup plates or wide bowls. Divide the cubed cheese over the salads and top with sliced peaches, strawberries and basil. Sprinkle the rest of the dressing over the salads. Perfect with a whole wheat baguette.
TIP: This salad is also great with Beemster Mustard.
