IMG_0224.jpg

Balsamic vinegar is good friends with buffalo mozzarella. The tanginess of the vinegar is a nice complement to the subtlety of the cheese. Because this recipe is a little bit sweet and a little bit savory it can be served as a appetizer or dessert. 

 

Figs and Bresaola, savory and sweet they’re a match made in heaven! Add some fresh mozzarella, peppery basil and balsamic dressing and this salad will make you swoon with every bite.
