1. Toast Pine Nuts
Toast 1/4 cup of pine nuts in a small sauté pan over medium heat until they're golden brown, about 3 minutes. Set aside to cool.
2. Prepare Dressing
In a small cup or bowl, whisk together extra-virgin olive oil, champagne vinegar, kosher salt, and black pepper.
3. Dress the Arugula
In a large salad bowl, gently toss baby arugula with just enough of the dressing to lightly coat the leaves.
4. Add Peaches, Basil, and Goat Cheese
Top the dressed arugula with sliced peaches, julienned basil leaves, and crumbled goat cheese. Sprinkle the toasted pine nuts over the salad.
5. Final Toss and Serve
Drizzle the remaining dressing over the salad, if desired, and give everything a final, gentle toss to combine. Serve immediately.
