Peach and Parma Ham Salad

As soon as Chef Heston Blumenthal at Home cook book came up as available to pre order I ordered it. Still not brave enough to cook from his other books, but decided to cook a few things from this one.

Peach Salad is the first dish I'm making from his book. My photo looks nothing at all like the photo in the book.  I'm not an expert at plating up, nor do I have the plates/dishes at home.

I tried to drizzle reduced balsamic vinegar around the salad but it didn't work. Think I reduced the vinegar too much & I have to learn how to drizzle with the spoon.

Since it's summer in Australia this Salad was ideal choice. Peaches are fresh and plentiful. Parma ham came from my favorite butcher Victor Churchill.

Will be making this  Salad weekly, while the peaches are still in season. Might try it with a different variety next time. This week Donut peaches weren't available.
