About the Recipe

Caprese salad is like a choose your own adventure book. It's very versatile and you can stretch it as far as you want from the traditional version which has balsamic vinegar, olive oil, tomatoes, mozzarella, and fresh basil. So my goal is not to stifle creativity, but to show off how pretty my tomatoes are.

Ingredients

2-3 garden tomatoes of your choice
Burrata
Pesto or fresh basil
Olive oil for drizzling (optional)
Balsamic oil for drizzling (optional)
Flaky sea salt (optional)
