Method
Vinaigrette
- In a small bowl, combine minced shallots, sherry vinegar, salt, and sugar. Let sit for at least 20 minutes to macerate the shallots.
- Add extra virgin olive oil and stir to combine.
Peaches
- Heat up a cast-iron pan on high until it starts to smoke and add a teaspoon of cooking oil. Add the peaches flesh side down. Sear for about 2-3 minutes or until charred. Turn peaches onto the other flat side and sear again for the same amount of time. Season with a touch of salt and set aside to cool.
- In the same pan, add the rest of the oil and add the corn kernels. Be careful during this process as the corn will pop out of the pan. A lid would be helpful during this cooking process.
- Season with salt and cook for 3-4 minutes or until tender and browned.
- Set aside to cool.
To Assemble
- In a bowl, add frisée and season with a touch of salt. Dress with the vinaigrette and toss.
- To plate: first add the dressed frisée to a serving platter followed by a spoonful of corn around, then a few pieces of charred peaches. Garnish with prosciutto and feta crumbles. Finally, drizzle the vinaigrette over everything.
