Antipasti: Insalata Caprese

Antipasti is an Italian word meaning literally “before the pasta.” antipasti is served simply as a dish of assorted meats, cheeses, olives, and vegetables, but the term may also be affixed to another type of food to indicate that the antipasti accompanies it. The most common example of this use of the term is antipasti salad, which is usually a green salad covered in various cheeses, olives, cold cuts, and other assorted meats.

Last night after doing our annually food shopping (lol) Missed/Bb. ChuvaChienes prepared this Insalata Caprese, thanks ChuvaChienes! (Iba talaga ang nagagawa ng social climbing 101.) If y’all don’t know, ChuvaChienes Y Byahera just got back from Milan last week at ito ang kanyang natutuhan sa kanyang mga friends na royalties doon…

Since pasta is traditionally the first main course served in Italian cooking, the antipasti is the appetizer or hors d’oeuvre course. Antipasti is the feminine form of the word, but the masculine form, antipasto, is often also used.

But in my case, this was my appetizer and meal last night. I was full na no! My eyes are really bigger than my stomach!

This of course is much better if accompanied by wine.

Like it? If young can eat it, ChuvaChienes can make it and you too!

You’ll need the following: Ripe tomatoes, Fresh mozzarella, Fresh basil, Olive oil and finally salt and pepper. Enjoy!
