RED AND YELLOW HEIRLOOM TOMATO PLATTER WITH BALSAMIC VINAIGRETTE
Summer on a platter! This salad is lovely in it's rustic simplicity. The tarragon adds a delicate anise note, different than the usual basil and tomato combination. Just add crusty chunks of bread to soak up the aromatic dressing, it's practically a meal in itself. Enjoy...

Steps:
- With the side of a sharp heavy knife, or with a mortar and pestle, crush the fennel seed, coriander seed and peppercorns. Put the julienned fennel bulb, red onion and sliced radishes in a bowl and mix with half the spices. Add a pinch of salt and pepper, a dash of balsamic and a tablespoon of olive oil.
- Wash and dry the tiny heirloom tomatoes and add to the fennel mix, with the minced shallot and the basil. Adjust the seasoning again, adding more ground spices to taste. Toss together and chill.
- Cut the yellow and red beefsteak tomatoes into 8 wedges each. Season with salt, pepper and a little olive oil. Set aside.
- Toss the arugula with a little olive oil and place on a large platter. Transfer the fennel and tomato salad and all of its juices to the middle of the bed of arugula. Arrange the yellow and red beefsteak wedges around the salad. Sprinkle minced garlic chives over the whole salad. Garnish with double basil sprigs.
- If using the baguette, cut into small slices, toast them if desired and arrange as a border around the salad.
