A refreshing and vibrant salad featuring fresh mozzarella, ripe tomatoes, and a zesty lemon-basil vinaigrette.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, sea salt, freshly ground pepper, light brown sugar, and extra virgin olive oil until emulsified.
Whisk the dressing vigorously to ensure it emulsifies properly, creating a smooth and well-blended mixture.
Slice the fresh mozzarella cheese and ripe tomatoes into even slices.
Use a sharp knife to achieve clean slices, enhancing the presentation of the salad.
Arrange the slices of mozzarella and tomato alternately on a serving plate.
Overlap the slices slightly for a visually appealing presentation.
Drizzle the prepared dressing over the arranged salad.
Pour the dressing evenly to ensure every slice is coated with flavor.
Garnish the salad with fresh basil leaves and serve immediately.
Tear the basil leaves by hand to release their aroma and add a rustic touch.
