Tomato, Onion and Mozzarella Salad

Ripe, flavorful tomatoes make the salad especially tasty.

If you prefer it less watery, remove some of the seeds and the very juicy interior.

For a milder flavor, rinse the diced onion briefly in cold water and drain well.

Buffalo mozzarella yields particularly creamy pieces.

Mix gently so the mozzarella doesn't get crushed.

A fruity extra virgin olive oil pairs especially well.

Only salt shortly before serving so the tomatoes don't release too much juice.

It's best to tear the basil roughly at the end so the aroma remains most intense.
