Caprese Skewers
Ingredients
- 16 cherry tomatoes
- 16 small fresh mozzarella balls bocconcini
- 16 small fresh basil leaves
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons balsamic glaze
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 16 four-inch cocktail skewers
Instructions
- Thread one cherry tomato, one folded basil leaf and one mozzarella ball onto each skewer, in that order.
- Arrange the finished skewers in a single layer in a shallow container.
- Drizzle lightly with olive oil and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Cover tightly and refrigerate overnight, up to 24 hours.
- Right before serving, arrange the skewers on a platter.
- Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the top in thin lines so the white mozzarella stays visible underneath.
Good to Know
A tray works just as well as a platter; the point is a single tight layer so nothing slides.
