Follow The Directions

01

Step

Slice the tomatoes into thick, generous slices (approximately 1/2 inch). Arrange them artfully on a serving platter. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Gently tear the Burrata cheese into smaller, enticing pieces. Distribute these creamy treasures over the tomato slices. (3 minutes)

03

Step

Scatter the fresh basil leaves amongst the tomatoes and Burrata, allowing their fragrant aroma to infuse the dish. (2 minutes)

04

Step

Drizzle the entire creation with the extra-virgin olive oil, ensuring each component is glistening with its richness. (1 minute)

05

Step

Season generously with coarse sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, enhancing the natural flavors of the ingredients. (1 minute)

06

Step

Finish with a delicate drizzle of aged balsamic glaze, adding a touch of sweetness and acidity to balance the flavors. (1 minute)

07

Step

Serve immediately and savor the harmonious blend of textures and tastes.

For an even more intense flavor experience, consider using a flavored olive oil, such as basil or garlic-infused.
If aged balsamic glaze is unavailable, a balsamic reduction can be made by simmering balsamic vinegar over low heat until thickened.
The quality of ingredients is paramount in this recipe. Seek out the freshest, most flavorful tomatoes and the creamiest Burrata you can find.
A sprinkle of flaky sea salt just before serving adds a delightful textural element.
Pair with crusty bread for soaking up the delicious juices.
