Submitted by Kari Homan Shannon

"I have not tried this, I'm just putting it on the net so that when I get ready to go to the store, I have a list of the ingredients needed without having to go through recipe by recipe. It is from Sylvia Bennett's $5 Dollar Menus for Two, the A&B Biochemical Machine Method."

I had eaten this at an upscale restaurant and was delighted to find the recipe. It is very good and easy to make.

I have seen variations of this recipe (including my own) and only read this to see if it offered any new twists, but was saddened to see that it lacked even the basic of the basics! It should specify, at the very least: use FRESH mozzerella, GOOD vinegar (e.g. red wine, balsamic, etc. depending on your tastes), GOOD extra-virgin olive oil; Only mix the vinegar and oil, sprinkle the salt/herbs on after. Layer the tomatoes/cheese slices in a continuous string, makes for a prettier presentation. Don't bake it, serve it fresh, as it will get mushy and the flavors will change. At least they got the fresh basil part right!
