   • In a medium bowl, combine the strawberries (hulled and sliced), fresh basil (chopped), raspberry vinegar, and sugar. Toss well to coat all ingredients evenly.

2. Chill the Dressing:

   • Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together and intensify.

   • After refrigerating, strain the mixture through a sieve into a jar, reserving the liquid. Set the strawberries aside for later use.

4. Shake the Dressing:

   • To the jar containing the reserved liquid, add the olive oil and water. Cover the jar tightly and shake vigorously until the dressing is well emulsified.

5. Assemble the Salad:

   • On each of 4 salad plates, arrange 1 cup of mixed greens as the base.
   • Top the greens with 1/2 cup of the reserved strawberries.
   • Drizzle each salad with 2 teaspoons of the prepared dressing.

6. Add Cheese:

   • Crumble the Stilton cheese over each salad, distributing it evenly among the servings.
   • Sprinkle each salad with 1 tablespoon of crumbled feta cheese for an extra burst of flavor and texture.

7. Serve:
