Preheat a grill to 500F (or high heat setting) with the lid closed. Place a grill basket on the grill grates to preheat until hot, about 5 minutes with the lid closed.

Place the peaches, sugar snap peas and olive oil in a medium mixing bowl. Toss together and season with salt and pepper. Once the grill basket is hot, add the peaches and peas and allow to char on the first side, about 3-4 minutes. Stir carefully, turning the peaches and cook until peaches and snap peas are charred and softened, about an additional 4-5 minutes. Remove the peaches and peas from the basket and let rest for a few minutes.

To serve, spread the whipped feta on a large platter. Arrange the charred peaches and snap peas on top of the feta. Drizzle with the salsa macha and garnish with the cilantro leaves, scallions and a sprinkle of flaky salt.

Place the feta, Greek yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice and garlic clove in a blender. Blend until smooth. The whipped feta can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
