You'll love this fabulous summer salad, in which the fruit meets its equal and opposite reaction—sharp Pecorino Romano cheese.

INGREDIENTS
1 small shallot, finely diced
3 tablespoons champagne vinegar
11/2 teaspoon honey, optional
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper
2 peaches, peeled if desired
1/2 pound fresh salad greens
1/2 cup shaved Pecorino Romano cheese

In a large bowl, combine all ingredients. Whisk until emulsified.

Toss greens with sliced peaches and just enough vinaigrette to coat. Garnish with cheese.
