This salad is an amazing combination of luxurious and simple. Chop and toss together a few ingredients, and you’re done in 5 minutes. Don’t let the amount of work fool you – this simple dish packs flavor and texture.
I didn’t have to stir it quite as often as I usually do when I make jam, and I think it was because the heat was coming at the peaches equally from all sides of the pot which helped cook everything at the same pace, and made my cooking job easier since I didn’t have to hover around the pot.
