Summer tomato salad with fresh oregano

Make the most of native tomatoes with this simple summer dish. If you don’t grow your own, farmers’ markets are selling heirloom varieties, including brandywine, green zebra, and carbon. Cut them into all different shapes. Arrange on a large platter, sprinkle with a white wine vinaigrette and garnish with fresh oregano — or another herb you have on hand. Add plenty of crusty bread to soak up the juices. (Recipe)
