Wash heirloom tomatoes under cool running water. Slice them into thick rounds and layer artfully on a large serving platter.

Sprinkle generously with kosher salt and ground black pepper, letting them sit for a few moments.

Carefully unwrap burrata cheese and pat dry with paper towels. Place the burrata in the center of the tomatoes.

Drizzle basil pesto over the sliced heirloom tomatoes and the burrata for even coverage.

Serve immediately while flavors are fresh, optionally alongside toasted grilled bread.
