As the ingredients here are so simple, it’s worth buying quality – find salted anchovies in delis rather than buying supermarket ones. This would be great served with summery roast chicken or barbecued lamb.
You can find moscatel vinegar in good delis – it’s sweeter and more delicate than sherry vinegar, but the latter will work fine too. Heritage tomatoes are often older, non-commercial varieties. As well as looking stunning, they have different flavours, making for an interesting salad. Find them in large supermarkets, farm shops and grocers.
