Southern-Style Tomato and Saltine Salad
6 servings
15 minutes total
Ingredients
  • 1 ½ lb Campari (or cherry) tomatoes
  • 0.5 oz fresh basil
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • 2 tablespoons garlic stir-in paste
  • 4 oz saltine crackers (1 sleeve)
Steps
  1. Quarter tomatoes; remove seeds and pulp. Chop basil finely (½ cup).
  2. Combine mayonnaise, salt, pepper, garlic paste, and basil in large bowl; whisk to blend. Fold in tomatoes. Crush crackers lightly and fold into tomato mixture. Serve.
Chef's Tip: Crackers soften after about 1 hour; as the salad sits, they thicken to a mashed potato consistency.
