Arugula Salad with White Nectarines and Mango Chutney Dressing
The slightly tart and spicy dressing bridges the flavors of the sweet white nectarines and peppery greens. Feel free to use yellow nectarines or even peaches if you can’t find white nectarines.

Almond Plum Galette
Even though it’s very easy to make, this French-style tart has layers of flavor and texture that are anything but simple.
Recipe: Whirl ¼ cup almond paste, 2 tbsp. packed light brown sugar, and ¼ cup sour cream in a food processor. Roll pie pastry for a single crust into a 13-in. round and lay on a baking sheet. Evenly spread almond mixture on dough, leaving a 2-in. border. Arrange sliced red-skinned plums on top and fold dough edge over plums. Brush edge with milk and sprinkle brown sugar on top of galette. Bake at 375° until crust is golden, about 35 minutes.
