How to make an Italian Caprese Salad two ways

Caprese salad is one of those dishes that simplicity is what makes it shine. Like any classic, whether it being art, music or food, you cannot add to it to make it better. You want to be able to taste each ingredient. The secret is not in the recipe, but in the quality and freshness of each ingredient, this is crucial. You need to buy the best sun ripen tomatoes that are vine grown, sweet and firm. Farmers markets are the best places for these. You need fresh buffalo mozzarella cheese. If you can’t find buffalo, then cow will still work but it has to be fresh. The olive oil needs to be real pure virgin olive oil that’s first pressed. Read labels carefully as a lot of so called olive oils are part vegetable oil or have other additives. The basil of course needs to be fresh. Tear it up to release even more flavour. Use quality crystal salt that you can actually crunch on and freshly cracked pepper for full aroma. And buy a rustic loaf of bread that’s crusty on the outside and full of holes in the middle. You don’t have to follow my recipe, this is just a guideline to help you enjoy one of the best salads. Make it for lunch.

Great video and visuals ingredients look mouth watering. Will try this for the first time tomorrow.

However I do think this choice of music took away from the video.

I'll try the rustic approach.

We Persian have habits of having a basket of fresh herbs at the lunch and dinner table, it comes with fresh flat bread and feta cheese, in the basket in the summer we have tarragon, different basils cilantros and red radishes and green onions but winter is radishes and green onion and what ever herbs we can get . We eat with what ever food we have and we make sure to eat a herbs and cheese in the flat bread by it self ( there is a saying in our country, if you eat that your husband won’t ever leave you for another women ) they say that so we eat the cheese and herb that is very good for us 🤷🏼‍♀️when we pick up the dirty dishes from the table both basket are empty ( 2 basket so every body can reach it ) ! We eat a lots of fresh herb with our food not just 2-3 leaves 🤷🏼‍♀️
