1 Prepare the ingredients

Fill a medium pot 3/4 of the way up with salted water; cover and heat to boiling on high. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Pick the mint leaves off the stems. In a large bowl, combine the vinegar, half the mint leaves (tearing just before adding), and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Stir to combine. Halve and pit the nectarine; cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick pieces. Transfer to the bowl of mint-vinegar mixture. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine. Set aside to marinate, stirring occasionally, at least 10 minutes. Roughly chop the pistachios. 

2 Blanch the snow peas & make the salad

Fill a medium bowl with ice water; add a pinch of salt. Set aside. Add the snow peas to the pot of boiling water. Cook 1 to 3 minutes, or until bright green and slightly tender. Drain the peas and immediately transfer to the bowl of ice water; let stand until cool. Once cooled, drain thoroughly; pat dry with paper towels. Transfer to the bowl of marinated nectarine. Season with salt and pepper; toss to combine.

3 Serve your dish

Serve the salad garnished with the chopped pistachios, remaining mint leaves (tearing just before adding), and cheese (crumbling before adding). Enjoy!
