Ingredients
  

  • 16 cherry tomatoes
  • 16 small fresh mozzarella balls
  • 16 fresh basil leaves
  • Balsamic glaze or reduction as desired
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 16 small skewers or toothpicks

Method
 

  1. Wash the cherry tomatoes and fresh basil leaves. Drain the mozzarella balls if they are packed in water.
  2. Take a skewer or toothpick and start by threading one cherry tomato onto it, followed by one mozzarella ball, and then one basil leaf. Repeat this pattern until you have four ingredients on each skewer, ending with a cherry tomato on top.
  3. Lightly season the skewers with a sprinkle of salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Just before serving, drizzle the Caprese salad skewers with a balsamic glaze or balsamic reduction and a generous drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil.
