- Add Basil Leaves: Tear or chop fresh basil leaves and sprinkle them over the tomatoes and Burrata. Basil adds a wonderful aroma and flavor to the salad.
- Season: Drizzle extra-virgin olive oil over the salad. Season with a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- Drizzle Balsamic Glaze: Finish the salad by drizzling balsamic glaze over the top. The balsamic glaze adds a sweet and tangy contrast to the creamy Burrata and tomatoes.
- Serve: Serve the Tomato Burrata Salad immediately as a delightful appetizer or a light, refreshing side dish.
