Italian

The Balsamic Glazed Caprese Salad has a rich history rooted in the Italian region of Campania. This classic dish features ripe tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, basil leaves, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze. Renowned chefs like Giada De Laurentiis and Mario Batali have popularized this simple yet elegant salad, which has become a staple in Italian cuisine. The key to a perfect Balsamic Glazed Caprese Salad lies in the quality of the ingredients, especially the balsamic glaze, which should be thick and sweet. While the traditional recipe is widely loved, some chefs have put their own spin on it by adding ingredients like avocado or prosciutto. For the best version of this dish, head to the Amalfi Coast in Italy, where the sun-ripened tomatoes and locally made mozzarella elevate the flavors to perfection.
