First, prepare the dressing. Combine the mustard and balsamic vinegar in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper. Stir well, then gradually add the olive oil. The dressing should be thick and runny. Add a sprinkling of dill to taste. Peel the cucumber, halve it lengthwise, and remove the seeds. Then halve it crosswise, cut these halves into thin strips, and then cut the strips crosswise into small cubes. Add the cubes to the dressing and let it marinate. Meanwhile, wash the tomatoes and cut them into thin slices. Arrange them overlapping on a plate, working from the outside in, and season with salt. Use a ring or other dish to arrange the cucumbers nicely on top of the tomato carpaccio. Garnish with a sprinkling of thick, dark balsamic vinegar or fresh dill.
