Wash and dry the strawberries, then hull and slice them in half or quarters, depending on their size.
Slice or tear the mozzarella into bite-sized pieces.
Tear or leave the basil leaves whole, depending on your preference.
Step 2: Assemble the Salad
On a serving platter or individual plates, alternate slices of strawberry and mozzarella, arranging them in a circular pattern or rows for a visually appealing presentation.
Tuck fresh basil leaves throughout the arrangement for a pop of color and freshness.
Step 3: Drizzle & Season
Drizzle the balsamic glaze evenly over the strawberries and mozzarella.
Add a light drizzle of extra virgin olive oil for richness.
Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper to enhance the flavors.
Step 4: Serve
Garnish with additional cracked black pepper, flaky sea salt, or more fresh basil if desired.
Serve immediately as an appetizer, side dish, or light dessert.
Why This Recipe Works
Strawberry Sweetness : Adds a juicy, fruity contrast to the creamy mozzarella.
