Use tomatoes at room temperature for the best flavor. Check the label on the balsamic glaze for added flavorings, or simmer 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar until syrupy.
Method
-
Pat the tomato and mozzarella slices dry with paper towels so the platter stays crisp and not watery.
-
Arrange the tomato and mozzarella slices on a platter in overlapping rows, tucking a basil leaf between each pair.
-
Drizzle with the olive oil, then sprinkle with the sea salt and pepper.
-
Zigzag the balsamic glaze over the top, scatter with the remaining basil and serve right away.
