How to make it 👨‍🍳

1

Slice the Large ripe vine or heirloom tomatoes into rounds about 1 cm thick.

2

Tear or slice the Fresh buffalo mozzarella to roughly the same thickness.

3

Arrange them on a flat plate in alternating slices, overlapping slightly. Tuck Fresh basil leaves in between the slices as you go.

4

Drizzle very generously with Extra virgin olive oil — this is not the moment for caution.

5

Season with Flaky sea salt and Freshly ground black pepper.

6

Leave to sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before serving. Cold mozzarella straight from the fridge has no flavour — never skip this rest.
