Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tomatoes

    Wash the heirloom tomatoes thoroughly under running water. Cut them into wedges or slices, depending on your preference. Place them in a large mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Add Seasoning

    Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil over the sliced tomatoes. Sprinkle with sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste. Gently toss the tomatoes to coat them evenly with the seasoning.

Assembly

  1. 3

    Plate the Burrata

    On a serving platter, place the Burrata cheese in the center. You can leave it whole or cut it open to let the creamy interior spill out.

  2. 4

    Arrange the Tomatoes

    Surround the Burrata with the seasoned heirloom tomatoes, ensuring an even distribution around the cheese.

  3. 5

    Add Basil and Balsamic Reduction

    Tear the fresh basil leaves and scatter them over the tomatoes and Burrata. Finally, drizzle the balsamic reduction over the entire dish for added flavor and presentation.
