Caprese is one of the famous Italian salads served as an antipasti, that is, a light snack at the beginning of a meal. But the combination of tender mozzarella and juicy tomatoes is found not only in this famous dish. There are other Italians invented cold snacks using these two products.

The secret of Caprese salad is simple: only fresh cheese, excellent olive oil, juicy tomatoes and a little aromatic basil. For 4 servings of snacks you will need: – 4 juicy strong tomatoes; – 2 balls (50 g x 2) mozzarella; – 12 fresh basil leaves; – finely ground salt; – 3-4 tablespoons of olive oil.

Wash and dry the tomatoes, remove the stalks. Cut each tomato into slices using a narrow, sharp knife. The slices should be no more than 0,5 centimeters thick. Cut the mozzarella cheese into slices of the same thickness. You can serve the Caprese salad by spreading it around on a plate, alternating between cheese and tomatoes, or turn them into a turret. If you choose the second method of serving, discard the bottom tomato slice so that your structure stands better on the plate. Sprinkle the salad with olive oil, salt and garnish with basil leaves. The classic salad recipe looks exactly like this, but if you deviate a little from tradition (and even Italians allow themselves various innovations), then you can add 1 tablespoon of thick balsamic vinegar to the Caprese dressing.

If you are not ready to serve the salad right away, do not salt it. The salt will suck the juice out of the tomatoes and ruin the snack. Salt Caprese just before you eat it

Pasta salad with tomatoes and mozzarella

Pasta salads are also classics of Italian cuisine. Hearty and fresh, they can be served not only as a snack, but also replace a whole meal. Take: – 100 g of dry paste (foam or rigatto); – 80 g of boiled chicken fillet; – 4 tablespoons of canned corn; – 6 cherry tomatoes: – 1 sweet bell pepper; – 1 scoop of mozzarella; – 3 tablespoons of olive oil; – 1 tablespoon lemon juice; – 2 tablespoons of dill, chopped; – 1 tablespoon of parsley; – 1 clove of garlic; – salt and pepper to taste.

Cook the pasta until al dente according to the instructions on the package. Drain the liquid and rinse the pasta with cold boiled water. Place in a salad bowl. Cut the chicken into cubes, the tomatoes into halves, and chop the mozzarella into small pieces with your hands. Rinse and dry the pepper, cut the stem, remove the seeds and cut the pepper into small cubes. Add pepper, cheese, chicken, and herbs to a salad bowl. Chop the garlic. Combine olive oil, lemon juice and minced garlic in a small bowl, whisk lightly. Pour the dressing into the salad, season with salt and pepper, stir and serve.
