Method

Season the tomatoes and cucumbers with salt, Worcestershire sauce, and red wine vinegar.

Blend all consommé ingredients together in a food processor until smooth.

Place a sieve lined with muslin cloth over a bowl and pour in the mixture.

Tie the muslin cloth with string and hang it to drain for six hours.

Pulse tapenade ingredients in a food processor with enough olive oil to form a paste.

Slice various coloured tomatoes into different sized pieces for the salad.

Slice asparagus, radish, and fennel and chill them in iced water before draining.

Arrange vegetables in bowls, garnish with tapenade and basil, and pour over the consommé.
