Instructions

• Remove the 2 balls fresh burrata cheese and the 4–6 heirloom tomatoes from the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature (about 20–30 minutes).
• Slice the 4–6 heirloom tomatoes.
• Place the 2 burrata cheese balls on a serving platter and arrange the tomato slices around the burrata in a single layer.
• Scatter the handful of fresh basil leaves over the tomatoes and burrata; tear larger leaves if desired.
• Drizzle extra-virgin olive oil (the fruitier the better) over the tomatoes, basil, and burrata.
• Drizzle good quality balsamic vinegar over the salad.
• Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
• Serve at room temperature.
