Strawberry, Mozzarella And Arugula Salad
- 1 pound strawberries, rinsed, dried and hulled
- 8 basil leaves, washed, dried, and roughly chopped
- 1 ball fresh mozzarella (The freshest you can get! Cow's milk is good but buffalo, smoked or burrata, while slightly more expensive, are unstoppable.)
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt
- Pepper
- 6 cups arugula, washed and dried
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
- Cut the berries in half (quarter larger berries). Toss the berries with the basil. Tear or chop the mozzarella into bite-size pieces.
- Whisk the oil and vinegar together. Season the dressing to taste with salt and pepper.
- Season the salad with a pinch of salt and the juice of 1/2 a lemon. Spread the greens out on a large platter. Tuck the mozzarella and berries in and around the greens. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and serve
