Instructions
Start by layering slices of tomatoes on a serving platter. Tuck slices of fresh mozzarella between each tomato so both are visible. Gently tuck whole basil leaves between the cheese and tomatoes. Arrange the slices so you can see every layer.
Season generously with flaky sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Drizzle all over with extra-virgin olive oil and then with the balsamic glaze to taste. Serve immediately.
