Ingredients

  • 2 vine-ripened tomatoes
  • 1/2 pint cherry tomatoes
  • 1/2 bunch fresh basil, leaves hand torn
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 3 balls buffalo mozzarella

Directions

Cut the large tomatoes into 6 or 8 wedges and the cherry tomatoes in half and put them into a bowl. Add the basil leaves, olive oil, and salt and pepper, to taste. With your hand, gently mix everything together and squeeze the tomatoes a bit to release some of their juices. Cut the mozzarella into bite sized chunks and add them to the tomatoes. Gently toss to blend everything together and serve immediately.

    Terrific!

    I liked the idea of mixing it in a bowl rather than constructing on a plate. The light squeezing of the tomatoes makes a huge... difference. Any additional ingredients would take away from the simple classic flavors.Read more

    A drizzle of Balsamic Vinegar in a puddle of Extra virgin Olive oil and some finely chopped fresh garlic or shallot would... really dress this classic dish well. A little wine, a piece of crusty bread and your set for the rest of the evening.Read more
