Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Such a great salad. I had some beautiful Georgia peaches and this was a salad they deserved. Lovely cumin dressing worked well with arugula and peaches. I'd forgotten to get shallots but didn't miss them. A definite repeat.

    Made this for a picnic potluck for a large group and it was the only dish fully devoured (we made waaaay too much of everything). The cumin added such an unexpected note, but one that combined into a lovely whole with the mint and toasted almonds. Will repeat for sure!

    Delicious! We used a mix of lettuces from our garden with arugula. We also substituted fresh mozzarella since we didn't have any burrata on hand. We served it with smoked pork chops (from Harrington's).

    This normally called for arugula which would have been an ideal choice (bitterness to counteract the sweetness of the peaches & burrata), but I had forgotten to buy some and used a lettuce & radicchio mix instead. The dressing was a bit heavy on the cumin. Otherwise this is a super tasty salad when peaches are in season. Interestingly, the mix of cumin with mint strongly evoked shiso to me, which I actually realized is a type of mint. I wonder if that was intentional.

    Absolutely brilliant and delicious combination of flavors. The cumin flavor is subtle and mixes nicely with the pop of toasted almonds.

    Peppery arugula, savory cumin, toasty nuts, and creamy cheese play off the vibrant juiciness of the peaches in this colorful salad.
