Peaches & cream with olive oil

Peaches & cream with olive oil

Lightly whipped double cream makes a pillowy base for sweet sliced peaches, balanced and elevated by cracked black pepper, oregano, and a good drizzle of EVOO.

Created to perfectly compliment the fruity nature of the Olive Oil Club’s August drop, this recipe is simple, sweet, and succulent.

Try a savoury version of this by switching the cream for stracciatella, or—for a breakfast that’s peach perfect—swap the cream for yoghurt.

Here's the method:

Whip the cream with the sugar and the zest of the lemon to soft peaks.
Segment the peaches.
Combine the juice of half a lemon with 50ml of EVOO.
To arrange, dollop the cream onto the plate and pile 4 or 5 slices of peach on top. Dress with the EVOO and lemon, then sprinkle with oregano.

The ultimate Greek salad

This recipe is from our Cretan queen—Maria. We've sat around Maria's table in Crete many times learning her recipe for the perfect mix. Made for a sunshine moment, this dish is best enjoyed in the summer months when produce is at its best. Simple, quick, and oh so delicious, Greek salad is made (or broken!) by the freshness of the ingredients. This is a dish that really should be eaten in summer when tomatoes and cucumbers are in season. Maria opts for the addition of red wine vinegar for a...
