Tips:

Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your tomatoes will make a big difference in the final dish. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and have a sweet, juicy aroma.
Use fresh herbs: Fresh basil and oregano will add a bright, herbaceous flavor to the salad. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but they will not be as flavorful.
Don't overdress the salad: A little bit of dressing goes a long way. You want the flavors of the tomatoes, herbs, and capers to shine through.
Serve the salad immediately: This salad is best enjoyed fresh. The tomatoes will start to wilt if you let it sit for too long.

Conclusion:

Sliced tomato salad with capers and basil is a refreshing and flavorful summer dish that is easy to make. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a salad that is both delicious and healthy. So next time you're looking for a light and refreshing meal, give this salad a try. You won't be disappointed!
