How to cook Caprese Salad with Pink Paradise Tomatoes
Step 1

Cut the tomatoes into slices approximately 5 mm thick.
Step 2

Cut the mozzarella into 5mm thick slices as well.
Step 3

Place slices of cheese and tomatoes on a plate, alternating them to form a ring.
Step 4

Place a mound of basil leaves in the center of the cheese and tomato ring.
Step 5

To make the balsamic sauce, combine equal parts vinegar and sugar in a small saucepan. Then bring the mixture to a boil and continue cooking over medium heat for about 7-10 minutes.
