A fresh and vibrant salad combining ripe tomatoes, creamy mozzarella, and aromatic basil, perfect for a quick and delicious meal.
Slice the tomatoes into even slices and arrange them on a serving plate.
Use a sharp knife to ensure clean cuts and preserve the tomato's texture.
Slice the mozzarella into similar-sized pieces and place them alternately with the tomato slices.
Let the mozzarella sit at room temperature for a few minutes before slicing for easier handling.
Scatter the basil leaves over the arranged tomatoes and mozzarella.
Tear the basil leaves gently to release their aroma.
Drizzle the olive oil and balsamic glaze over the salad.
Combine the olive oil and balsamic glaze in a small bowl before drizzling for an even distribution.
Season with salt and pepper to taste before serving.
Taste the salad before adding salt to avoid over-seasoning.
