    List of Ingredients




    Marinated Tomato Salad

    Marinade:
    1 1/2 cups tarragon or white wine vinegar
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/4 cup finely chopped shallots
    2 tablespoons finely chopped chives
    2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
    1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
    2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

    Salad:
    6 plum tomatoes, quartered vertically
    2 large yellow tomatoes,* sliced horizontally into 1/2-inch slices
    16 red cherry tomatoes, halved vertically
    16 small yellow pear tomatoes,* halved vertically

    *Substitute 10 plum tomatoes, quartered vertically, for yellow
    tomatoes and yellow pear tomatoes, if desired.

    To prepare marinade, combine vinegar and salt in large bowl; stir
    until salt is completely dissolved. Add shallots, chives, lemon juice
    and white pepper; mix well. Slowly whisk in oil until well blended.

    Add tomatoes to marinade; toss well. Cover and let stand at room
    temperature 2 to 3 hours.

    To serve, place 3 plum tomato quarters on each of 8 salad plates. Add
    2 slices yellow tomato, 4 cherry tomato halves and 4 pear tomato
    halves. Garnish each plate with sunflower sprouts, if desired. (Or,
    place all marinated tomatoes on large serving plate.)

    Makes 8 servings
