- Spoon the Mayo mixture into the center and spread it out leaving a 1 inch border.
- Pat the tops of the Tomatoes dry and lay overlapping each other over the Mayo mixture.
- Fold up the borders leaving the middle open, drizzle some Olive Oil over the Crostata and brush the Pastry with the Egg mixed with a little water. You can sprinkle a little more Asiago over the Crostata.
