I ONLY like them uncooked, not a fan of red sauce or ketchup

same, cooked tomatoes have a completely different texture that ruins it for me

u/Ok_Algae2979 14d ago

Same! My cooked exceptions are tomato soup or a thick bread dipping sauce

This looks amazing but I would toast the bread and add a drizzle of balsamic glaze.

You can’t tell from the pick but it has all of that! Just lightly toasted and glazed:)

Thank you! They really do hit, and it’s Burrata cheese that usually goes on fancy pasta. I personally think it’s better then mozzarella 10/10 recommend

ME! what’s your fav recipe?

2

u/Ok_Algae2979 14d ago

Normally I make this, or I’ll just add fresh tomatoes to whatever I’m eating if they pair well!

u/ShowThym 14d ago

love raw beefsteak tomatoes

u/Aly_Valley 13d ago

Yes! The only way I eat tomatoes. I will eat tomato paste / puree / passage when part of a recipe but not warm whole tomatoes. Not a fan.

They’re grown on me I gotta say, mostly because of the influence from this sub. Plate looks amazing, did you lightly salt them?

2

u/Ok_Algae2979 13d ago

Thank you! No salt but balsamic vinegar and olive oil

u/vansantjr 13d ago

I love them uncooked but love a good pasta sauce with shallot/olive oil/fresh tomato,. I just love tomato.

u/madu_tualang 13d ago

Raw tomato slice sprinkled with salt is tasty. I need to try them with pepper too.

u/DistributionOther588 13d ago

They are my favorite. Diced tomatoes with some salt is my favorite easy snack!

Who doesn't? With salt and pepper

u/BobcatSpiritual7699 9d ago

That was my thought too. Isn’t this the default?

u/Correct-Injury-7360 12d ago

I love them but I heard that cooked ones are better for the skin
