A CookTale

To us nothing is a better first course in the Summertime than Heirloom Tomatoes, Buffalo Mozzarella, fresh Basil leaves & EVOO. We found the heirlooms at the marvelous SunFrost Market in Woodstock. Though priced at a king’s ransom, you do get what you pay for. Just look at the photo, it says more than I could ever attempt to describe.

INGREDIENTS

2 Heirloom Tomatoes, medium size about 3/4 of a pound
1 Ball of Bufalo Mozzarella
6 Basil Leaves cut vertically in half
1-1/2 TB of EVOO
Kosher Salt added after it’s all tossed together. Not before.

METHOD

1. Slice the Buffalo Mozzarella into 2- 1/2″ slices.
2. Cut the Heirloom Tomatoes into 8 quarter pieces.
3. Add to a mixing bowl & toss in the Basil Lraves.
4. Add the EVOO & carefully toss it all together.
5. Now add the Kosher Salt. Otherwise the Tomatoes will release juices.
6. It’s time to enjoy Summertime
