Tomato and Nectarine Salad with Smoked Mussels

Posted by Ekone on Aug 16th 2024

This salad is a celebration of summer produce in its prime. The marriage of juicy nectarines and golden yellow tomatoes is a seasonal classic. We’ve taken our rendition for a smokier spin by adding a tin of our meaty smoked mussels and dressing the lot in a bright, smoked paprika spiced vinaigrette.

1 teaspoon sherry vinegar

2 teaspoons olive oil

½ teaspoon maple syrup

¼ teaspoon smoked paprika

½ teaspoon red pepper flakes

Pinch of fine sea salt

1 medium yellow heirloom tomato, cut into bite size pieces

1 ripe nectarine, pitted and cut into bite size pieces

1 can Ekone Smoked Mussels

Flaky salt to season

Torn basil to garnish

To make the dressing, combine the sherry vinegar, olive oil, maple syrup, smoked paprika, red pepper flakes and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Whisk to emulsify.

Add the tomato, nectarine, and mussels to a medium mixing bowl and pour over the vinaigrette. Gently toss to dress all of the nooks and crannies. Spoon the salad onto a serving plate. Season with a pinch of flaky salt and garnish with torn basil.
