Preparation Slice the tomatoes and the Mozzarella cheese and wash and dry the basil leaves well. Arrange the slices of tomatoes on a serving dish and alternate them with the cheese slices.
Break the basil leaves into pieces with your fingers and sprinkle them over the dish. Season with your extra virgin olive oil and add salt and pepper according to your taste. The Chef's tips When you buy your Mozzarella cheese, check that it is really white and that it is full of milk. We recommend you should drink some Chardonnay with your starter. Curiosity The combination of this type of cheese and tomato is used not only as a starter but to season pasta or gnocchi called ‘alla caprese.’
