Mediterranean Fig Mozzarella Salad Food

MOZZARELLA AND FRESH FIG SALAD

Steps:

• Arrange mozzarella and figs on a serving plate and drizzle with marinade. Sprinkle fresh mint on top.

THE EASIEST SEXIEST SALAD IN THE WORLD

Steps:

• One thing I do is to criss-cross the figs but not quite to the bottom. Then, using your thumbs and forefingers, squeeze the base of the fig to expose the inside. At this point you'll think, 'Oooh, that looks nice, I think I'm quite clever ...' or at least I do. More importantly, it allows your dressing to get right into the middle of the fig. All these little things really help to make a salad special. Simply place the figs in a dish, weave around 1 slice of Parma ham or prosciutto per fig, throw in some slices of buffalo mozzarella and rip over some green or purple basil. Mix 6 tablespoons of oil, half the lemon juice, honey and some sea salt and freshly ground black pepper together in a bowl and drizzle everything with this dressing. As far as salads go, it's pretty damn sexy.

FIG AND MOZZARELLA SALAD

Steps:

• Instructions Put the balsamic vinegar in a small saucepan. Boil until reduced by half, about two minutes. Allow to cool. Wash and dry the figs. Cut a cross in the top of each fig to about halfway down. Using your forefingers and thumbs, press on the outside of the fig so that it opens up at the top. Arrange five figs each on four serving plates in the shape of a cross. Cut the mozzarellas into quarters and then cut each quarter in half so that you have 16 pieces. Place four pieces of mozzarella on each plate between the figs and grind black pepper over them.5Using a teaspoon, drizzle some of the balsamic vinegar in a cross shape across the figs and mozzarella.
