The Two Sisters Ep. 11 | Tomato, Avocado, and Goat Cheese Napoleon

goat cheese

🥗Healthier: feta cheese

💰Cheaper: cream cheese

Feta offers a similar tangy flavor at a lower cost.

balsamic glaze

🥗Healthier: balsamic vinegar

💰Cheaper: red wine vinegar

Red wine vinegar is less expensive and still adds acidity.

To make the vinaigrette, mix balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper, and honey, then add olive oil slowly to emulsify.

Blanch the basil leaves in boiling water for 15 seconds, then transfer to an ice water bath for 10 seconds.

Squeeze the leaves dry and blend with the olive oil. Strain and refrigerate for at least 12 hours.

Marinate the tomato slices with the basil oil, salt, and pepper.

With a ring mold, place a slice of tomato, then a layer of avocado, and then a layer of goat cheese, repeating the process and leaving a tomato slice on top.

Remove the ring and add some vinaigrette on top and around your tower creation.
