Mara making Insalata Caprese (Italian Tomato Mozzarella Salad)
August 18, 2010                                          

Yes, Insalata Caprese.  One of my favorite dishes, with ripe, bright red tomatoes, luscious fresh mozzarella, the vibrant green of basil leaves and the glimmer of extra-virgin olive oil.  Add a loaf of good Italian or French bread and you have a delectable summer meal.  Instead of giving you a recipe (not that you need one for this simple dish), I taped a video of me making it my way - it's short and sweet and, at the end, I got dinner! So can you! Buon appetito!  (It's also on YouTube - search Mara making Insalata Caprese.)
