Notes

Finding and grilling peaches:
- Try to use peaches that are on the riper side (ie. not hard). They will grill better, taste better, and release beautiful juices when grilled if they are on the riper side.
- I found that to give the nicest grill marks, a grill pan on the stove works best to grill the peaches. But if you'd like, you can try using your BBQ to grill them.
- Make sure your grill pan is hot before grilling (ie. medium heat setting on the stove), but not too hot.
Use castelvetrano olives with the pits for this salad- they just taste so much better than the pitted version.
If you can't find castelvetrano olives, you can substitute cerignola olives.
High quality fresh mozzarella will work well in this recipe instead of burrata
