# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • It comes together in twenty minutes flat but looks like you put in serious effort
  • The dressing strikes that perfect balance between sweet and bright without overpowering the fruit
02 -
  • Never dress fruit salad more than an hour ahead or it gets sad and watery
  • Citrus fruits like oranges and pineapple hold their texture better than softer fruits like peaches
03 -
  • Pat your fruit really dry after washing so the dressing does not get watered down
  • Let the dressed fruit sit for fifteen minutes before serving to let the flavors meld together
