For some reason, good tomatoes are hard to find. Tomatoes with no taste suck . . . suck suck suck suck suck!!!
So when I was able to procure some tasty heirloom tomatoes from Sierra Produce in Arcadia, I ordered up a case to enjoy in its purist form . . . raw with just simple adornment.
Tomato Mozzarella . . . laura style!
heirloom tomatoes . . . sliced
fresh basil . . . chiffonade
fresh burrata . . . torn into pieces
fruity olive oil
good basalmic vinegar
a few grinds of sea salt and green peppercorns
By the way . . . fresh burrata is a glorious cheese. The problem is finding GOOD burrata. Gioia Cheese Company in South El Monte supplies some of the best restaurants in the Los Angeles area. Don't settle for a lousy substitute. . . life is short... .enjoy your food! bon appetit!
