Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 whole ripe tomatoes
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 clove garlic
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Wash and dry the tomatoes. Using a sharp knife, core the tomatoes and slice them into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Arrange the slices on a serving platter, slightly overlapping them.
In a small bowl or jar, prepare the vinaigrette. Add the olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, minced garlic (use a fine grater or mince it very finely), salt, and black pepper.
Whisk the vinaigrette ingredients together until emulsified and smooth. Alternatively, if using a jar, secure the lid and shake vigorously until combined.
Drizzle the vinaigrette evenly over the sliced tomatoes. Use a spoon if needed to ensure even distribution.
Finely chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it generously over the tomatoes.
Let the dish sit for 5 to 10 minutes at room temperature to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve immediately as a side dish or appetizer.
