Heirloom tomato salad with burrata is one of my favorite salads tomatoes are in season. Made with simple ingredients and loaded with flavor. Similar to a caprese salad but elevated to the next level using heirloom tomatoes, creamy burrata cheese and peppery arugula.

Course: Salad
Servings: 4 servings
Author: Helena
Ingredients
  • 2 cups arugula
  • 4 heirloom tomatoes
  • 1 small sweet onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 burrata cheese, drained
  • 2-3 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • flaky sea salt and ground black pepper to taste
Instructions

  1. Place the washed arugula on a serving platter. Top with slices of heirloom tomatoes. 

  2. Rinse the sliced onion in cold water for a milder taste and put a few slices on the tomatoes.

  3. Carefully tear the burrata cheese open, it is very soft, place on top of the salad. Drizzle good quality olive oil on the cheese and tomatoes and top with a liberal sprinkle of salt and a little black pepper.

  4. Serve with some crusty bread to soak up all the juices of the tomatoes and olive oil.
