CHERRY TOMATO, WHITE BALSAMIC VINEGAR AND BASIL SALAD

Steps:

• Slice tomatoes in half and put into a medium sized bowl.
• Sprinkle tomatoes with salt, dress with vinegar and oil and toss together.
• Cut basil leaves into chiffonade (roll leaves together as if making a cigar and run your knife perpendicular through at very thin intervals--the result will be little strips of basil).
• Sprinkle basil over tomatoes, add pepper, toss and serve.
• Notes: I thought that the salad tasted the best after a few hours. The downside is that your basil can turn a little dark. I'd still say it is worth letting the salad mascerate for a couple hours--maybe adding basil leaves in an hour before serving.
