HEIRLOOM TOMATO SALAD WITH CRUMBLED GOAT CHEESE



Heirloom Tomato Salad with Crumbled Goat Cheese image

Either way, now is when I look for ways to make our heirloom tomatoes the star of any dish I use them in. That's the case with this dish. The tomatoes were firm and sweet, with just the hint of acidity from the lemon juice, countered by the tang of onion and the creaminess of the dressing and goat cheese crumbles. Nancy and I both went back for seconds and she finished off the leftovers the next day before I could even get home!

Yield serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons canola oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds mixed heirloom tomatoes, cored and cut into 1/2-inch wedges
1/4 cup chopped mixed fresh herbs such as basil, parsley, and chives
4 to 6 ounces fresh goat cheese, crumbled
1/4 cup microgreens, such as basil, arugula, or beet (optional)

Steps:

  • To make the dressing, whisk the vinegar and mustard together in a large bowl. Add the oils in a slow steady stream, whisking constantly, until the dressing is creamy and emulsified. Season with salt and pepper. Add the tomato wedges and gently toss to coat.
  • Add the herbs and goat cheese and toss to coat. Taste and adjust for seasoning with salt and pepper. Divide among chilled serving plates. Top with the greens. Serve immediately.
  • microgreens
  • Microgreens are the plant's first true leaves and are exceptionally tender. The young seedlings are harvested when less than fourteen days old, often with the stems attached. The tiny leaves are exact miniatures of how they would look if left to mature. They are often very intense in flavor. Common varieties include arugula, basil, beet, collard, mustard, daikon, chard, and celery. Microgreens are available at upscale and natural grocery stores such as Whole Foods and many farmer's markets.
