This is a play on a traditional french dish called tomate a la croque au sel which just means tomatoes with a salt crust or bite of salt. In this recipe they are simply seasoned with gray salt and Pierre Poivre and the result is purely fantastic.
Place the cut tomatoes on a plate and season them with grey salt and Pierre Poivre. Drizzle some olive oil and the lemon juice on top and finish with the chopped scallions
I would recommend letting it sit for about 5 to 10 minutes before serving them so that the salt and pepper slightly melt into the tomatoes. Enjoy
Recipe Note
Variations & Ideas:
• Serve with fresh ricotta or goat cheese and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar.
• Preheat the grill (or a grill pan) and sear the tomatoes cut-side down on the grill for about 2 to 3 minutes before serving them.
