Why do they call it caprese?
The salad is named after the island of Capri. Capri is an island located in the Tyrrhenian Sea off the Sorrento Peninsula, on the south side of the Gulf of Naples in the Campania region of Italy. The recipe pays homage to the Italian flag with its Red (tomato), Green (Basil) and White (mozzarella) colors.
What is caprese?
It’s simple! Caprese is a salad that uses sliced mozzarella, tomatoes, basil, olive oil and/or Italian dressing. There’s various different recipes for a caprese salad now, but this are the basics! You can also drizzle with balsamic vinegar or honey. Your choice of using your favorite way to enjoy!
