1
Prepare the Tomatoes
Wash the heirloom tomatoes thoroughly and cut them into bite-sized pieces. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
2
Slice the Cucumber
Peel the cucumber if desired, then slice it into thin rounds. Add the cucumber slices to the bowl with the tomatoes.
3
Mix the Vinaigrette
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the tomato water, olive oil, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
4
Combine the Salad
Pour the vinaigrette over the tomatoes and cucumber. Gently toss to combine, ensuring all ingredients are well coated.
5
Add Croutons and Basil
Just before serving, add the croutons and torn basil leaves to the salad and toss lightly.

Serve
Serve the salad fresh, garnished with extra basil leaves if desired.
