This is a must-make with your summer's crop of tomatoes and fresh basil --- prepare the vinaigrette firstly as it needs a few hours to blend the flavors together and may be doubled if desired --- to take this to yet another level use fresh buffalo mozzarella cheese --- I have served this wonderful salad to a crowd of people many times in the past and also placed Italian cold cuts all around the edge of the platter :)
