Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tomatoes

    Wash the hot house tomatoes thoroughly under running water. Cut each tomato into thin slices and place them in a large salad bowl.

  2. 2

    Julienne the Onion

    Peel the red onion and cut it in half. Thinly slice the onion halves into julienne strips. Add the julienned onion to the bowl with the tomatoes.

  3. 3

    Slice the Mozzarella

    Cut the fresh mozzarella cheese into bite-sized pieces or slices. Gently fold the mozzarella into the salad bowl with the tomatoes and onions.

  4. 4

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar over the salad. Use a spoon to gently toss the ingredients together until everything is evenly coated.

  5. 5

    Add Fresh Basil

    Tear the fresh basil leaves into smaller pieces and sprinkle them over the salad. This will release their aroma and flavor.

  6. 6

    Season to Taste

    Add cracked black pepper and kosher salt to the salad according to your taste preferences. Toss gently again to combine.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Transfer the salad to a serving dish and enjoy immediately for the best flavor and freshness.
