Caprese salad

Yield: 2 portions

Ingredients

Caprese salad:

  • 125 gr mozzarella cheese

  • 125 gr cherry tomatoes

  • salt/pepper to taste

  • 2 tbsp green oil

  • 1 tsp balsamic cream (optional)

  • basil leaves for decoration

  • (and the man who to cooks it all - optional) 🤣🤣🤣

Green oil

  • bunch of basil

  • 1/2 bunch of cilantro and parsley

  • lemon peel

  • 100 gr. the best olive oil

  • Gauze for straining

Instructions

Dip the basil in boiling water for 30 seconds. And immediately into the ice water. Then on a paper towel, blot from excess moisture. We combine olive oil, basil, and zest in a blender. We break through 3-5 minutes. We filter through 3-4 layers of gauze (you can also sift through a clean towel, but the towel's color will be bright green and then you will have to try to wash it). The oil is ready. It can be used for up to 1 week and stored in the refrigerator.
