Finally a recipe . . . sorta


Now that I got to go grocery shopping and actually have the things and the means to cook, I present you this caprese salad, which is your basic salad minus the balsamic vinegar. Since I am not a big fan of it, I decided to skip it. However I plan on making it again here in a few days and what I am going to do, I will cook what they call a balsamic reduction, which is balsamic vinegar and honey simmered down or reduced if you please. I think that would be way way better than simple vinegar.

Ingredients:

  • EVOO;
  • baby heirloom tomatoes;
  • fresh mozzarella cheese;
  • salt and pepper to taste;
  • fresh basil leaves.

Directions:

Wash and cut your tomatoes, assemble the ingredients on a plate. Drizzle a desired amount of extra virgin olive oil on top, sprinkle some salt and freshly cracked black pepper or pepper medley. Enjoy!

For this photo shoot my goal was to try and take high key pictures which I never do, I do not think I succeeded, gotta work on my lighting a bit more, maybe even try using a flash. But that's off topic, just random thoughts popping in, I guess. Really don't wanna start using a flash haha.
