basil leaves (chopped)

tsp fine sea salt (plus more to taste)

Just before serving, drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss to combine and serve.

This will go great with a family favorite, Persian Fesenjan and Naan Yummo

You made the video fun to watch. I learned some new knife skills too.

Hi Natasha! We absolutely loves this salad, but the balsamic vinegar made it look darker, is that how it’s supposed to look or did I use the wrong one?

With the price of dining out, we are cooking far more! Barbecuing burgers tonight and THIS salad, instead of making fries. My darn avocado was dead, so we made it without and still, super tasty!!! 
Loved it!!!

Very easy salad to make. Tasted super yummy! Definitely gonna be something I remake often. Thank you for the delicious recipe!

Make a beautiful and easy Italian Caprese Salad in 10 minutes, with the best quality ingredients, and the end result is perfection!

Caprese Salad

mozzarella cheese (sliced into medium thin slices)

basil leaves

Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (,

flakey sea salt (,

Use a sharp serrated knife to slice the mozzarella and tomato into about 1/4 inch thick (or thicker if you like) slices.

Grab a large plate and alternately add tomato and mozzarella slices, slightly overlapping.

Drizzle a little bit of good quality extra virgin olive oil on top. Sprinkle basil over the top, or tuck smaller leaves throughout. Garnish with flakey sea salt and fresh cracked pepper if you&#39;d like.

Nice explanation and tips for assembling this dish. I would always bring something like this for a potluck or holiday party when I worked at a hospital. Some bozo would ask me for the recipe every damn time. 
It was hard to even give a reasonable response.
Just look at it - lay out the 3 different ingredients. 
Every. Single. Time.

Brings back memories from being stationed In Gaeta and Naples! Grazie😊

Thanks for a simple recipe. It was better than caprese salad I've had at an Italian restaurant.I used fresh mozzarella from Costco and it was perfect.
