Peach, Corn & Buffalo Mozzarella Salad

Peaches, one of the many joys of the Australian summer, have arrived early.

The sweet perfume of a ripe peach conjures up many blissful teenage memories of sitting of the beach and taking that first bite, the nectarous juices running down my chin.

There was no need for napkins, just dive into the ocean and wash it all away.

I'd like to tell you about a salad that is as refreshing as a peach and ocean dip - a peach, corn & buffalo mozzarella salad tossed with basil, mint, extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar. The combination of flavors and textures in this salad is delightful. It simply must be tried to fully appreciate the harmony of ingredients.
