With the scorching heat becoming relentless, turning on the stove is the last thing on my mind. Summer has hit "mission critical" and I am a firm believer that hot times in the city call for supper to be a thing of simplicity and grace. Something composed seems appropriate, chilled or even room temperature.
My ideal? A luscious Caprese Salad made with heirloom tomatoes, velvety mozzarella di bufala and bits of fragrant basil. Drizzle a little Champagne vinegar and fruity olive oil on the plate. Top with a sprinkling of sea salt and freshly cracked pepper.
The perfect dinner.
Made all the more perfect when eaten in front of the air conditioning.
That looks great for those blistering hot days.
