If you want an incredible summer dish that will have you yelling about how good it is, look no further. And an extra great bonus: it's also super easy to make. Coarsely chop the fruit and veg, then simply whisk together the savory-forward dressing. In under 10 minutes, your new favorite salad is ready for action.
The dressing packs that umami punch with a combination of bright acids—including lemon juice and white wine vinegar—offset by savory layers, snipped chives, and fish sauce. The vinaigrette coats the bright tomatoes, sweet corn, and juicy peaches in a perfect sweet-savory fashion; this salad is heaven! Definitely a new star in my summer repertoire.

- 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon fish sauce
