Notes
- For the best flavor, opt for ripe, juicy tomatoes. If your tomatoes are extra juicy, drain them slightly before adding them to the dip to prevent it from becoming too watery.
- Mix the diced tomatoes, garlic, basil, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar together and let them sit for at least 10-15 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld together for a more vibrant and flavorful topping.
- Fresh basil is key for this recipe. Add it just before serving to maintain its bright green color and fresh flavor.
- For the best presentation and flavor, drizzle the balsamic glaze over the dip just before serving. This prevents it from mixing too much with the tomatoes and gives it a beautiful finishing touch.
