Heirloom Tomato and Burrata Salad with Tomato Conserva Vinaigrette

Tomato lovers, this is for you: sliced ripe tomatoes, creamy Burrata cheese, and fresh basil, topped with a tomato conserva and balsamic vinaigrette. The vinaigrette is also delicious over grilled fish, eggplant, or zucchini. If you can’t find Burrata, substitute sliced fresh mozzarella.

• 
  
  1/4 cup Tomato Conserva, finely chopped
  
  


• 
  
  1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  
  


• 
  
  1 tsp. red wine vinegar
  
  


• 
  
  Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  
  


• 
  
  1-1/4 lb. large ripe tomatoes, preferably heirloom, cored and sliced 1/2 inch thick
  
  


• 
  
  8 oz. Burrata (1 large or 2 small balls), quartered or halved to yield 4 pieces
  
  


• 
  
  16 to 20 small whole fresh basil leaves
  
  


• 
  
  Flaky sea salt, such as Maldon, for serving
  
  

In a small bowl, whisk the conserva with the oil, vinegar, 1 tsp. salt, and 1/4 tsp. pepper.

Arrange the tomato slices and Burrata on 4 salad plates. Scatter the basil leaves and drizzle the vinaigrette over the tomatoes and cheese. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt and serve.
