friederike from Berlin,

Really really delicious!

The main problem was actually that the individual ingredients were too large to take one of each in every bite. On their own, the ingredients are nothing special - instead, this dish thrives on the combination of all these very different flavours. My main piece of advice would therefore be to cut all ingredients into smaller pieces.

Other than that, there are just minor issues to mention. We used rosewater instead of orange blossom water (because we didn't have the latter), but it worked very well. Grilling the peaches (as opposed to using them raw) made them look very nice, but I'm not sure that it really added anything, except for some extra work. The speck was good, but there was too little of it.
