Ingredients

  • 3 lbs large tomatoes like beefsteak or heirloom, 1.4 kg
  • 1 pinch flaky sea salt and pepper
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise 50 g
  • 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice 15 mL
  • 2 Tbsp fresh basil roughly chopped
  • 1 tsp capers
  • 1 or 2 balls burrata cheese

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Slice: Slice tomatoes crosswise into thin slabs and arrange them on a serving platter. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  2. Sauce: Stir together ¼ cup mayonnaise, 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard, 3 cloves garlic (minced), and 1 Tbsp lemon juice.
  3. Assemble: Drizzle sauce over the tomatoes and top with 2 Tbsp fresh basil, 1 tsp capers, and 1 or 2 balls burrata cheese (torn into big chunks). Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Storage: Tomatoes get wet and soft quickly, so this salad is best eaten right away.
  • Tips for slicing tomatoes: Use a serrated knife for the cleanest and best slices of tomato.
  • What is burrata? It's a fresh cheese that is essentially a ball of mozzarella filled with cream. It's made with either cow's milk or buffalo milk. It can be eaten raw and has a similar taste to cheddar or aged brie.
