Best Caprese Salad Dressing Recipes

CAPRESE SALAD WITH ROASTED MANGO DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Wrap the mango in aluminum foil, and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast it for 1 hour, rotating halfway through. The mango should be soft. Remove the foil and let it cool.
• When the mango is cool enough to handle with your hands, slice off the cheeks and scoop the flesh into a small food processor or blender. Repeat with the remaining mango, scooping as much flesh off as possible. Add the minced cilantro, ginger, chile, cumin, vinegar, olive oil and agave nectar. Blend until smooth and add a little water if the dressing is too thick.
• Arrange the tomatoes and mozzarella on a platter and season them with salt and pepper. Drizzle with a few tablespoons of the mango dressing and a little extra olive oil. Top with some torn fresh cilantro and serve.

CAPRESE SALAD DRESSING

Steps:

• Place first 6 ingredients in pulse style blender and blend until dressing is consistent and smooth. Taste and adjust ingredients as needed. I sometimes add pepper. Serve drizzled over sliced tomatoes and cheese (mozzarella or goat cheese). I like to alternate tomatoes and cheese on a platter and sprinkle chopped basil on top.
