1️⃣ Prep the Tomatoes:

• Slice tomatoes and arrange them on paper towels. Lightly sprinkle with salt and let sit for 20 minutes to draw out moisture.

• After 20 minutes, gently blot excess liquid with a paper towel.

2️⃣ Sauté Aromatics:

• In a small pan, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, sautéing until softened (~3-4 mins). Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

6️⃣ Serve & Enjoy!

• Let cool slightly before slicing. Best served warm.

✨ Pro Tips:

• Fresh herbs are key for maximum flavor—dried won’t give the same brightness!

• For a richer taste, try adding Parmesan or feta cheese to the mix.
