I was going to write about a completely different dish, but this salad\u00a0turned out so fantastic, I had to tell you about it\u00a0while ripe delicious\u00a0tomatoes are still sold at\u00a0markets because, as simple\u00a0as it may seem, this is one of these rare dishes where average-tasting tomatoes just won’t do. The\u00a0few other ingredients are there just to highlight\u00a0the sunny, end-of-summer ripe tomato flavours.<\/p>\n![\"Tomato](\"http:\/\/www.withaglass.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/shiso_tomatos-420x315.jpg\")
