Title: Classic Caprese Salad
Categories: Five, Cheese, Vegetables, Herbs
Yield: 6 Servings
1 lb Fresh, best-quality
- mozzarella
4 md Heirloom tomatoes
1 bn Fresh basil; leaves only,
- some reserved for garnish
Flaky sea salt
Coarse ground pepper
High-quality extra-virgin
- olive oil
While mozzarella is cold, slice it into 1/4" slices. Let it sit,
loosely covered, to come to room temperature while you prepare the
tomatoes.
Slice the tomatoes into 1/4 to 1/2" thick slices, leaving them in a
single layer on the cutting board as you go. Sprinkle generously
with salt.
On a serving platter, arrange the mozzarella, tomato slices, and
whole basil leaves so they overlap slightly. Pour any tomato juices
from the cutting board over the dish. Sprinkle again with salt and
pepper, and drizzle with plenty of oil. Top with reserved basil,
and serve.
