3   Ripe tomatoes - see * Note
3 tablespoons 45mlSherry vinegar
1/2 teaspoon 2.5mlSugar
2 teaspoons 10mlSalt

Recipe Instructions

* Note: The greatest variety of colors, sizes and shapes possible (for example, red, yellow, striped, cherry, beefsteak, plum, pear, etc.).

Two hours ahead of time, place the yogurt in a strainer lined with a coffee filter and set over a bowl. Place in the refrigerator and let yogurt drain for two hours.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

At serving time, cut large tomatoes into chunks or wedges; cut small tomatoes in half or quarters. Place all tomatoes in large bowl.

Place vinegar in small bowl and whisk in sugar, salt, pepper and drained yogurt. Drizzle in olive oil while whisking so as to form an emulsion. Pour over tomatoes, add chives, and stir.

Brush the bread slices lightly with olive oil on both sides. Place on a rack placed on a cookie sheet and place in oven. Toast for 10 to 15 minutes, or until just beginning to brown. Spoon the tomato salad on top and serve.

This recipe yields 6 servings.
