Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Wash the Tomatoes

    Rinse the ripe tomatoes under cool running water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

  2. 2

    Slice the Tomatoes

    Using a sharp knife, slice each tomato into even rounds, about 1/4 inch thick. Arrange the slices on a serving platter.

  3. 3

    Prepare Basil

    Wash the fresh basil leaves gently and pat them dry. Tear the leaves into smaller pieces if desired, or leave them whole for garnish.

Seasoning

  1. 4

    Drizzle Olive Oil

    Evenly drizzle the extra virgin olive oil over the sliced tomatoes.

  2. 5

    Add Balsamic Vinegar

    Sprinkle the balsamic vinegar over the tomatoes to enhance their flavor.

  3. 6

    Season with Salt and Pepper

    Sprinkle the salt over the tomatoes and season with freshly ground black pepper to taste.

  4. 7

    Garnish with Basil

    Tuck the fresh basil leaves between the tomato slices or sprinkle them on top for an aromatic finish.
