Caprese: video recipe

Step-by-step recipe with photos

Let's start preparing the Italian Caprese salad. One of the main ingredients is Mozzarella cheese. Caprese, by the way, may not include anything at all, except for this most delicate cheese and sweet tomatoes.

Once upon a time, in my hometown, I worked as a waiter in the best restaurant in this place, and before I started working there, I had to memorize the entire menu, all the terms and fancy names of dishes and their components, unknown at that time. I still remember that Mozzarella is “unleavened cheese made from the milk of black buffaloes of the evening milking” :)

Of course, in Russia, ordinary cow’s milk is used in its production, but it also turns out delicious. By the way, I can tell you one super-budget analogue of Mozzarella, which also goes perfectly with tomatoes, just like the “original”. This is an ordinary unleavened Adyghe cheese! To be honest, lately I’ve only been using it; I prefer the crumbly consistency and milky taste.

So, wash the tomatoes and basil. Cut the tomatoes into circles 0.5 cm thick. Drain the brine from the Mozzarella, blot it with a napkin and cut into circles of exactly the same thickness. We take the plates and lay them in half, for example, overlapping mugs of tomatoes and cheese, alternating them with each other.

That's all 🙂 All that remains is to put basil leaves on top, drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar, pepper and salt if desired (I don’t add salt). Or you can make Caprese salad with Pesto sauce. It consists mainly of basil with olive oil, so it perfectly enhances the taste of the appetizer. Caprese with Pesto is incredibly delicious! Ready in 5 minutes .

As you noticed, Caprese sauce or Caprese dressing (photo below) is as simple as the Italian salad itself. You can experiment a little yourself, just remember the main rule - the presence of basil. And, of course, simplicity in combinations. As for me, Caprese salad with Pesto sauce is the most winning combination, so pour it on top of Mozzarella and tomatoes.

You can add a little more olive oil and be sure to pepper. Italian appetizer Caprese is ready!

Decorate the plate with green basil leaves and serve. Caprese salad, Pesto sauce, aromatic basil... What could be tastier? Let's sum it up!

Brief recipe: Caprese or Mozzarella salad with tomatoes

Wash the tomatoes and basil, remove the Mozzarella cheese from the brine and pat dry with a paper towel.
Cut the tomatoes and mozzarella into 0.5 cm thick slices and place them on two plates, alternating the ingredients. You can also place it in a circle on one plate, the main thing is that the tomatoes and Mozzarella should be laid out overlapping.
Prepare pesto sauce in five minutes and pour it over the appetizer a little or simply lay basil leaves on top, sprinkle with olive oil, balsamic vinegar and sprinkle with black pepper and salt to taste.
