Choose firm, ripe tomatoes of various types for the best flavor and texture.
Slice the larger tomatoes along their natural lines and remove the tops.
Arrange the opened tomatoes on a serving plate.
Halve or quarter cherry tomatoes, remove their tops, and add them to the plate.
Slice any additional tomato varieties, discard the tough parts, and place them on the plate as well.
Cut fresh mozzarella into moderately thick slices and arrange them around the tomatoes on the plate.
Drizzle generously with extra virgin olive oil.
Sprinkle dried oregano evenly over the salad.
Add a pinch of coarse salt, breaking it with your fingers for better distribution.
