Equipment
- 1 Skewers
- 1 Cutting Board
- 1 Knife
Ingredients
- 1 pint about 300g cherry tomatoes
- 1 8 oz container mini mozzarella balls (bocconcini)
- 1 bunch fresh basil leaves
- Balsamic glaze for drizzling
Instructions
- Begin by washing the cherry tomatoes and basil leaves. Ensure they are thoroughly dried using a paper towel.
- Drain the mini mozzarella balls from their container. If needed, pat them dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
- Take a skewer and thread a cherry tomato onto it, followed by a mini mozzarella ball, and then a fresh basil leaf. Repeat this pattern until the skewer is filled, leaving a little space at each end for easy handling.
- Arrange the assembled skewers neatly on a serving platter or dish.
- Just before serving, drizzle balsamic glaze over the skewers. You can either drizzle it over the entire platter or individually over each skewer for a decorative touch.
- Serve the Caprese Salad Skewers immediately as a delightful appetizer or starter, and enjoy the burst of flavors in every bite!
Notes
- Ingredient Quality - Use the freshest ingredients possible for the best flavor. Ripe cherry tomatoes, high-quality mini mozzarella balls, and fragrant basil leaves will elevate the taste of the skewers.
- Skewer Options - You can use either wooden or metal skewers for assembling the Caprese Salad Skewers. Soak wooden skewers in water for about 30 minutes before assembling to prevent them from burning during cooking if you plan to grill the skewers.
