Time 30m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (8- to 10-ounce) ball of fresh burrata cheese
1 pint mixed heirloom cherry tomatoes or 8 to 10 (2-inch diameter) heirloom tomatoes
Good olive oil
Aged balsamic vinegar
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
10 fresh basil leaves, julienned
Fleur de sel or sea salt
6 Garlic Toasts, recipe follows
1 baguette
1/4 cup good olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 garlic clove, halved lengthwise

Steps:

  • Cut the ball of cheese in half crosswise and place the halves, cut side down, on 2 salad plates. Cut each tomato in half through the stem end and distribute them around the burrata. Drizzle the tomatoes and burrata generously with olive oil and balsamic vinegar and sprinkle with kosher salt and pepper. Scatter the basil on the salads, sprinkle with fleur de sel, and serve with Garlic Toasts.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Slice the baguette diagonally into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Depending on the size of the baguette, you should get 20 to 25 slices.
  • Lay the slices in one layer on a baking sheet, brush each with olive oil, and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Bake the toasts for 15 to 20 minutes, until they are browned and crisp. As soon as they are cool enough to handle, rub one side of the toasts with the cut side of the garlic. Serve at room temperature.

STACKED TOMATO AND BURRATA SALAD

Comparing mozzarella and burrata is a little unfair, as burrata is significantly richer and creamier. It's not like comparing apples and oranges; it's more like apples and supermodels. In fact, burrata means 'buttered,' which is really all you need to know.

TOMATO, BURRATA & BROAD BEAN SALAD



Tomato, burrata & broad bean salad image

Chop up tomatoes, toss with salt, top with creamy burrata and slather with a broad bean-flecked salsa verde to make this simple yet super-tasty salad

Provided by Rosie Birkett

Categories     Side dish, Starter

Time 27m

Number Of Ingredients 16

500g tomatoes (I used a mix of sizes and colours)
1⁄2 tsp caster sugar
150g broad beans , podded
handful basil
handful chives
handful flat leaf parsley
1 tbsp tarragon
1 tbsp lovage
1 tbsp mint leaves
3 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp Dijon mustard
pinch of fennel seeds
1 lemon , zested
1 tbsp red wine vinegar
2 x 100g burrata or 2 x 125g balls mozzarella
50g hazelnuts , toasted and roughly chopped

Steps:

  • Chop the tomatoes into a mixture of slices and wedges, then put them in a bowl. Toss with 1/2 tsp salt and the sugar, then leave to marinate for 30 mins. Meanwhile, bring a pan of water to the boil and add the broad beans. Boil for 2 mins, then drain and allow to cool for a couple of mins. Peel them out of their shells. This is a bit fiddly but well worth it - I use my thumbnail to pierce the skin, then gently squeeze out the shiny green beans.
  • Finely chop the herbs, then tip into a bowl and whisk in the olive oil, mustard, fennel seeds, most of the lemon zest, and red wine vinegar. Season, then stir in the broad beans.
  • Tip the tomatoes onto a serving platter. Top with the burrata, then spoon over the broad bean salsa. Scatter over the hazelnuts and remaining lemon zest to serve.

Tips:

  • Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes. This is the key to a great salad. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and juicy.
  • Don't skip the burrata. This creamy, soft cheese is the star of the show. It adds a richness and creaminess that balances out the acidity of the tomatoes.
  • Blanch the broad beans. This will help to remove their skins and make them more tender.
  • Use a light and flavorful dressing. A simple vinaigrette made with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper is all you need.
  • Serve the salad immediately. This is a best enjoyed fresh.

Conclusion:

This tomato, burrata, and broad bean salad is a delicious and refreshing summer dish. It's perfect for a light lunch or dinner, and it's also a great way to use up fresh tomatoes from the garden. With its vibrant colors and flavors, this salad is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
