In a medium bowl, combine flour, tomato, baking powder, basil and salt. Cut in butter with pastry blender (or food processor) until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in 1/2 cup cheese. Add buttermilk and egg; mix just until dry ingredients are moistened.
Knead dough 8 times on lightly floured work surface. Roll or pat into a 7-inch circle. Brush top with beaten egg white. Sprinkle remaining cheese over dough. Cut into 8 wedges; place wedges on greased baking sheet.
Bake in preheated 400°F oven 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Serve warm or at room temperature.
