To begin with this recipe, we must first prepare a few ingredients. You can have caprese salad using 12 ingredients and 3 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.

The ingredients needed to make Caprese Salad:
  1. Prepare 220 gr baby mozzarella, halved
  2. Make ready 500 gr cherry or grape tomatoes
  3. Take 1/2 cup basil
  4. Take to taste balsamic glaze
  5. Make ready Caprese salad dressing:
  6. Take 1 clove garlic, minced
  7. Prepare 1/2 tsp Dijon mustard
  8. Prepare 2.5 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  9. Take 1 Tbsp white wine vinegar
  10. Prepare 1/4 tsp (each) dried oregano, dried parsley, and dried thyme / rosemary
  11. Take 1/2 tsp salt
  12. Take to taste ground black pepper

For this Caprese, I used a simple balsamic reduction, which results in a pretty presentation and gorgeous flavor. Because they're so darn scrumptious on their own, the best summer tomato recipes let the tomato take center stage — which is where this easy caprese salad comes in. All we've added is a milky mozzarella, fragrant fresh basil, a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil, a spoonful of balsamic glaze, and a shower of flaky sea salt to help draw out the sweet tomato juices. Caprese Salad is made with fresh mozzarella cheese.

Steps to make Caprese Salad:
  1. Put all the dressing ingredients in a jar. Beat until well blended. Adjust to taste.
  2. In a bowl, add the mozzarella cheese, tomatoes and basil. Apply dressing. Stir gently.
  3. Arrange on a serving plate. Add balsamic glaze and sprinkle with the remaining basil just before serving. Yum 😋

This is different to the mozzarella cheese you grate and sprinkle onto things to bake and melt. Fresh mozzarella is soft, and unlike most cheeses, it is not salty. It has a flavour similar to ricotta - though the texture is different. The wonderful flavours of the Mediterranean are blended together in this salad. Ripe tomatoes are tossed with mozzarella, red onion, olive oil, balsamic vinegar and fresh basil.
