Classic Italian salad of tomatoes and cheese.

Categories Salad

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

9 oz mozzarella ((soft))
3-4 tomatoes
4 tbsp olive oil (first extraction)
1 oz green basil
1 oz walnuts (or pinecones)
2 cloves of garlic
salt

Steps:

Wash, dry the basil, separate from the stems, put in the chopper.
Add pine nuts, a pinch of salt, and garlic (peeled and chopped into several parts).
Add parmesan, cut into arbitrary pieces, pour oil.
Chop shortly. When grinding, you do not need to achieve a uniform consistency, on the contrary, the sauce should remain heterogeneous, consisting of small pieces.
If you don't have a chopper, you can use a mortar and pestle to make the sauce.
Soft mozzarella and tomatoes (it is important that the tomatoes are delicious) cut into thin slices. Put either portion, as in my photo, or on one large plate in a circle.
Put the pesto, garnish with basil and serve. Caprese salad with pesto is beautiful, light, and of course delicious!

PESTO PASTA CAPRESE SALAD

Pesto Pasta Caprese Salad image

The traditional Caprese salad is modified to pasta form. The mozzarella used is a fresh mozzarella, if you use the brick style, it will not be the same. If you can't find the pearlini mozzarella, use the cieglini and cut it in half. Regular rotini pasta can be used but the cooking time will be different.
