Roasted Tomato and Radish Salad with Burrata

This Roasted Tomato and Radish Salad with Burrata is the foreshadowing to summer we’ve been waiting for! Our days are getting longer, the flowers have bloomed, the birds are singing, and this delicious ‘salad’ is waiting to be devoured!

For this recipe I used on-the-vine cherry tomatoes from the Farmers Market, because aesthetically; I love the way they look. You can certainly use loose tomatoes for this recipe and follow the same method. It’s important to keep in mind that roasting times will vary depending on the size of tomato.

This is one of those low-maintenance dishes where you just put everything to the same pan and let the oven do the work.

Roasted vs Raw Radishes:
I’ve always been a huge fan of raw radishes and their varied hints of spice. After-all, radishes are related to wasabi and horseradish. What you may not know is that roasting radishes brings out their sweetness, which makes them absolutely perfect with acidic tomatoes and creamy burrata.

I’m a sucker for the visual aspect of on-the-vine tomatoes but any tomatoes will work for this recipe.

The tomatoes are done when the skin starts to split and burst. Roasting times will vary depending on the size of tomatoes.
