Summer Salad Series
Heirloom Tomato & Burrata Salad with Balsamic Drizzle and Arbequina Olive Oil
Ingredients
- 3–4 ripe heirloom tomatoes, sliced thick
- 2 balls fresh burrata cheese
- 2 tablespoons Butlers Pantry Cranberry Orange Balsamic
- 3 tablespoons Arbequina Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Fresh basil leaves (a generous handful)
- Flaky sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper
- Optional: Toasted pine nuts or crushed pistachios for texture
Instructions
Prepare the Tomatoes
Slice the heirloom tomatoes and arrange them in overlapping layers on a serving platter. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt to enhance their flavour.
Add the Burrata
Gently tear open the burrata balls and place them on top of the tomatoes, allowing the cheese to ooze slightly over the slices.
Dress with Finesse
Drizzle Arbequina olive oil evenly over the tomatoes and burrata. Drizzle the balsamic gently in ribbons, adding both richness and tang to the salad.
Garnish
Finish with fresh basil leaves. Season with freshly cracked black pepper, and if desired, add toasted pine nuts or crushed pistachios for added texture.
