ngredients
2 E a c h H e i r l o o m To m a t o e s –
Different Colors
4 Each Basil Leaves, Large
3 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVO)
1 Tsp Organic Espelette Chili Powder
(yes, organic)
1 Oz Ball of Burrata Cheese – (from
Whole Foods, if possible)
1 Tsp Coarse Sea Salt
Method
In a small mixing bowl, combine the
EVO & espelette chili powder.
Mix well until the oil is red in color
with no clumps. Set the mixture to
the side.
Using a bread knife, cut the tomatoes
into quarters/wedges. Arrange
the tomatoes flesh side up in a bowl,
alternating the colors. Cut the
burrata cheese ball in half and place
it on the side of the tomatoes.
Sprinkle the sea salt over the
tomatoes and cheese evenly
(tomatoes need a lot of salt!). Tear the
basil leaves by hand and sprinkle
over top of the tomatoes. Lastly, using
a small spoon, drizzle the EVO/
espelette oil mix over your tomato
& burrata for a sweet and spicy
summer salad.
Simple and bright!
