CAPRESE SALAD
A summer staple! The thing that sets this Caprese Salad apart from the usual is that it's tossed with a garlic-herb vinaigrette first then finished with a balsamic glaze. Keeps it looking "clean" with terrific flavour! Serve as a side, on toast with avocado or as a light meal with bread.

Steps:
- For the tomatoes: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- On a large rimmed baking sheet, combine the cherry tomatoes, cocktail tomatoes and Roma or Campari tomatoes. Drizzle with the oil and scatter the torn basil over the top. Season with the salt and toss well to coat. Roast until the tomatoes are lightly browned and beginning to give off their juices, 30 to 35 minutes. Allow to cool slightly.
- For the salad: Arrange the tomatoes on a large platter. Tear the burrata over the top. Scatter the arugula and basil over the top and drizzle with the oil. Finish with the flake salt and black pepper, if desired.
ROASTED TOMATO CAPRESE SALAD
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
- Arrange the tomatoes on a sheet pan, cut sides up, in a single layer. Drizzle with 1/4 cup of olive oil and the balsamic vinegar. Sprinkle with the garlic, sugar, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Roast for 2 hours until the tomatoes are concentrated and begin to caramelize. Allow the tomatoes to cool to room temperature.
- Cut the mozzarella into slices slightly less than 1/2-inch thick. If the slices of mozzarella are larger than the tomatoes, cut the mozzarella slices in half. Layer the tomatoes alternately with the mozzarella on a platter and scatter the basil on top. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper and drizzle lightly with olive oil. Serve at room temperature.

REBECCA'S TABLE CAPRESE SALAD
Every summer I have out-of-control basil growing in my garden, and it's a serious challenge to come up with ways to use it all. It sometimes seems to grow faster than I can pick it. Then there is my garden arugula and several bountiful bushes of candy-sweet cherry tomatoes of varying colors. This salad guarantees that no cherry tomato or basil leaf goes to waste. For parties, I take a huge platter-size version of the salad, drizzle the pesto vinaigrette over the fresh mozzarella, and leave a small pitcher of the vinaigrette on the side for those who can never get enough of the deliciously pungent stuff.
Yield serves 10 to 12

Steps:
- TO MAKE THE PESTO VINAIGRETTE: In a large skillet set over medium heat, add the pine nuts and stir until they turn golden brown, about 4 minutes. (Don't leave them unattended, they burn easily.) Remove from the heat and let the nuts cool. Place the garlic and 1/4 cup of the toasted nuts in the jar of a blender or work bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade and process at medium speed until combined. Add the basil, salt, and 1/2 cup of the olive oil, and blend for a few minutes until the basil is thoroughly pureed. Add the lemon juice and the remainder of the olive oil and pulse a few times, just until combined. Set aside.
- TO COMPOSE THE SALAD: Using a large platter, make a generous bed of arugula in the center, and arrange a line of overlapping mozzarella slices on top of the greens. Arrange overlapping slices of tomatoes on 1 side of the mozzarella and a mound of the halved cherry tomatoes on the other side. Decorate the mozzarella with a generous drizzle of the vinaigrette and pour the rest into a pitcher for serving on the side. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of pine nuts on top of the dressed salad just before serving.
- Whether serving sliced fresh tomatoes as part of a salad or eating them solo in their natural glory, I always sprinkle them lightly with salt to bring out their flavor.

- With a serrated knife, cut the tomatoes into 1/4″ thick slices. Arrange them on a large serving platter, overlapping their edges and varying the shapes as best you can.
- Cut the burrata or mozzarella into 1/4″ to 1/2″ slices (burrata is tricky since the inside is so creamy; I cut it into 1/2″ slices and gently tugged the slices into smaller sections, see photos). Tuck the cheese around and underneath the tomatoes, dispersing it relatively evenly across the platter.
- Sprinkle basil leaves all over, and tuck a few more into the crevices. Drizzle the olive oil over the salad. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper.
- For the best flavor (if you have the time), let the salad rest for 30 minutes so the tomatoes release some juices and the flavors have time to mingle. This salad is best served within a few hours. Leftovers will keep, covered and refrigerated, for up to 3 days.
