I make this all the time, I tried it all over Italy, and got to taste the different versions. It's so easy, and now I have to have it all the time. The authentic version in Southern Italy is made with Buffalo cheese, I thought this was a joke, but after leaving the restaurant, around Pompeii, there was a small yard with real Buffalo's. I would have never guessed there would be Buffalo's in Italy. But sure enough there is!
Ingredients:
- Fresh Mozzarella (I prefer the big ball packed in water)
- Balsamic Vinegar (Drizzle)
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil (A heavier drizzle)
- Roma Tomato's sliced (Ripe)
- Sea Salt (Pinch)
- Fresh Black Pepper (Pinch)
- Basil leafs (optional)
- Italian Seasoning (Sprinkle)
Directions:
Put in dish that will hold the amount of slices you desire. Slice Mozzarella thinly. Place tomato, cheese, and basil leaf in dish. Pour desired amount of Balsamic Vinegar and Olive Oil, enough to coat, but not cover, (go easy on the vinegar, as it will be too tart). Sprinkle Italian Seasoning, Sea Salt, and black pepper over top. You can experiment with the seasoning until your desired taste is achieved. Make before hand to marinate, if you refrigerate, the Olive Oil will congeal and get soggy.
