Caprese salad has its roots in 19th century Italian cuisine. Since then, this cold appetizer has become an indispensable dish for every festive table for Italy.
It is necessary
- - 100 g of basil;
- - 2 tomatoes;
- - 200 g of Mozzarella cheese;
- - 100 g of Gouda cheese;
- - pepper;
- - salt;
- - olive oil.
Instructions
Step 1
Cut the Mozzarella cheese into small slices. To prevent the cheese from sticking to the knife, soak the knife in vegetable oil.
Step 2
Rinse the tomatoes thoroughly. Then cut them along the perimeter. It is recommended to use only fresh tomatoes in the salad, but they can also be fried in olive oil.
Step 3
Arrange the tomato rings carefully. Top with mozzarella cheese. Try to make an even circle out of the tomatoes. The aesthetic appearance plays an important role in this dish.
Step 4
Place the basil leaves in the center of the dish. You can also add strips of Gouda cheese to the greens. It will add a spicy, salty taste to the dish. As a result, the whole dish should be lightly pepper.
