I can’t wait to try this! We’ve been addicted to Caprese Salad since our first tour in Italy. Our stops included a visit to the Isle of Capri, as beautiful a site as this salad is delicious! Last summer, I learned to make our own fresh mozzarella from whole milk. You should try it, it only takes a few ingredients and about an hour and I get the equivalent of about two grocery store balls. Oh, and try drizzling your salad with balsamic glaze just before serving. I saw elsewhere that you love the taste and every Caprese I had in Italy was drizzled with it.

I LOVE Caprese Salad. I have adapted it to an easy tossed salad using Romain lettuce, fresh pearlini mozzarella, cherry tomatoes (I love the heirloom varieties) fresh basil (green and purple) and balsamic vinaigrette (added to individual bowls so that any leftovers -not usually – won’t wilt).

After enjoying an amazing ricotta appetizer at an Italian restaurant a couple weeks ago, I got it in my head to make ricotta at home, and I did it this morning! But I felt bad just standing at the counter and eating it on little slices of toasted French bread, so I used some to make this salad. Ricotta may not be the traditional cheese, but oh my, was it good! I’ll make another salad for dinner guests tomorrow (if I don’t eat all the cheese before then!) Thank you Kate – your recipes are always perfection!

In reply to Kate. Correction—my husband just called Cupini's and they sell it, but don't make it.

In reply to Stacy. Hey Stacy and Kara! You'll like water-packed mozzarella better than vacuum-sealed (even better if it's burrata). I usually buy it at Whole Foods. I think Cupini's might sell fresh cheese! I know they sell fresh pasta.

I made this delicious and beautiful salad. I usually make little towers with the tomatoes, cheese and basil but this was so much better and the flavors married better. Using the heirloom tomatoes was a wonderful new element and added more flavor and of course the presentation was almost too pretty to eat! Thank for a new twist on an old favorite.
