FAQ ❓

Which fruit should you choose for a peach and apricot summer salad?

The combination of peach, nectarine, apricot and raspberry is perfect for a summer fruit salad. These stone fruits are juicy, sweet and slightly tart, creating a beautiful balance. It's best to choose them ripe but firm, so that they retain their shape when cut.
Yes, both yellow and white peaches can be used. The nectarine, a cousin of the peach, adds a firmer texture. Apricots should be ripe but still slightly firm, so they don't turn into a purée when mixed.
Lime juice enhances the flavors and prevents oxidation of the cut fruit. Its zest adds a touch of tangy freshness that perfectly balances the sweetness of fruits like peach or apricot. It's the secret ingredient that will give your fruit salad that extra kick!
Yes, you can replace it with liquid honey, maple syrup or leave it out altogether if the fruit is naturally sweet.
Fresh basil adds an original, subtly peppery aromatic note that contrasts well with the sweetness of summer fruit. It's an interesting alternative to mint, ideal for adding a surprise without masking the flavors.
Add raspberries last, just before serving, to avoid crushing them or making the other fruits soggy. Their delicate texture means they should be handled as little as possible. They add color, acidity and a delicate touch to the salad.
Sprinkle them over the salad just before serving: they add contrast and a very pleasant extra texture. Of course, you can leave them out if you're allergic to tree nuts.
It will keep for up to 24 hours in an airtight container in the refrigerator. To preserve its freshness and texture, add the raspberries, basil and almonds at the last minute. Stir again before serving to distribute the dressing and flavors.
