Tomato Mozzarella Salad

April 1, 2020 by josefinetm Leave a Comment

Yet another lovely trip to the summerhouse is over. It has been such an amazing week with my brother, dad, uncle, aunt and two cousins – and a whole lot of people dropping in and out. The black wooden beach house with white windows and doors, which I am lucky enough to call my summerhouse, has been buzzing with life, happy people and sunshine.

Now we are on our way home – and tomorrow we will head for Sicily. I can barely wait.

We have had so much delicious food in the summerhouse. My uncle is a master baker, my dad took care of the grilling and I… Well evidently I became the salad chef. No complains there. I love love love making summer salads all day every day.

I made a bunch of different salads – this tomato salad being my favourite of them. It’s perfect served as a side for grilled goods – veggies and meat alike. And it is a great way of enjoying the sweet summer tomatoes now they are in season.

NOTES

– Half a tablespoon sounds like a lot of salt, but it is wonderful in this salad. Salt goes very well with tomatoes. It makes them shed some liquid and intensify the taste of them.
