Steps:
- Whisk together vinegar, mustard, salt, sugar, and pepper in a large bowl. Add oil in a slow stream, whisking constantly until dressing is emulsified. Add tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil and toss well. Season with salt and pepper.
Tips:
- Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes. The better the tomatoes, the better the salad.
- Slice the tomatoes evenly so they stack nicely. Use a sharp knife and a gentle sawing motion.
- Make the green chile-cilantro oil in advance. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
- Use a good quality balsamic vinegar. A cheap vinegar will have a harsh taste that will overpower the other ingredients.
- Assemble the salad just before serving. The tomatoes will start to release their juices and the salad will become watery if it sits for too long.
Conclusion:
This fresh mozzarella and stacked heirloom tomato salad is a refreshing and flavorful side dish or appetizer. The combination of sweet tomatoes, creamy mozzarella, and spicy green chile-cilantro oil is irresistible. The chipotle vinegar adds a subtle smokiness that takes the salad to the next level. This salad is sure to impress your guests!
