2. Throw the tomatoes in a food processor or blender and pulse until they turn into a smooth liquid. Pour into a large mixing bowl.

3. Cut the cucumber in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Cut the cukes into a small dice. Don't do too small — these pieces add amazing and necessary crunch.

4. Finely dice the onion.

5. Add the cucumber, onion, minced garlic, vinegar and olive oil to the tomato liquid. Stir and season with salt and pepper to taste.

6. Cut the avocado into cubes and add it into the mixture. Chill before serving. When ready to eat, serve soup in bowls with ½ mound of burrata per person. Top with torn basil leave and some balsamic glaze.
