No-Waste Tip: What to Do With Overripe Tomatoes

Got a few overripe beefsteak tomatoes on your counter? Don’t toss them! Freeze them instead and turn them into a refreshing, gourmet topping for your burrata. A simple, elegant and delicious way to reduce food waste — the SAVOURA way.

Ingredients

  • 1 large ripe SAVOURA beefsteak tomato (or 2 medium ones)
  • 1 burrata (2 burratinis)
  • 1 to 2 tbsp of pesto (homemade or store-bought)
  • 1 tbsp Maison Orphée lemon olive oil
  • Flaky sea salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper (optional)
  • (Optional) A few fresh GOURMA basil leaves for garnish

Preparation

  1. Freeze the tomatoes
    Place the tomatoes in the freezer for at least 4 hours, or overnight, until completely frozen.
  2. Grate the frozen tomatoes
    Once frozen solid, use a cheese grater to shave the tomatoes into delicate tomato “snow.”
  3. Plate the dish
    Spoon a bit of pesto onto your serving plate. Place the burratini on top, then generously cover with the shaved frozen tomato.
  4. Finish with flavor
    Drizzle with Maison Orphée lemon olive oil, sprinkle with flaky salt, add a dash of pepper if you’d like, and top with fresh basil leaves.
