How to make tomato carpaccio

We started washing the tomatoes and cut them into very thin slices (I used a slicer). Drain the anchovies of the oil and cut the fillets diagonally to obtain small rhombuses. Drain the pickles and cut them into thin slices.
Chop the onion very small. We spread the tomato slices on a tray, covering the entire surface. We distribute the anchovies, the pickle, and the vinegar, sprinkle with the thyme and season with the oil and the black pepper.

This tomato carpaccio recipe is a different way to taste a salad, with a slightly more careful presentation. It serves both as an entree, served directly in individual dishes, as a dish to share, arranging the slices of tomato in a dish from which each diner can serve the desired amount. It can both accompany a plate of meat and fish.
