Equipment

  • Sharp Knife

Ingredients

  • 4 ripe tomatoes, cored & cut into wedges
  • 1½ tsp shallot, finely minced
  • ½ tsp garlic, finely minced
  • 2 tbsp good olive oil
  • 2 tbsp white wine vinegar
  • Sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste
  • 1½ tbsp basil leaves, finely sliced

Instructions

  • Core and cut each tomato into 8-10 wedges, then place in a serving bowl.
  • Sprinkle the finely minced shallot and garlic over the tomatoes. Season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste.
  • Drizzle the oil and vinegar evenly over the top, then gently toss to coat evenly. Add basil and toss again. Side Note: We like our salads tangy! Use less vinegar if you prefer a less tangy dressing. 
  • Serve immediately with fresh, crusty bread to sop up the juices!
