Hmmm ... I used to live e Napoli, which is where mozzarella buffalino began and I really enjoy it. I was surprised to see garlic included in your recipe ... never saw garlic included when this was served in Italy. I would think that any amount of garlic would be a detriment to the wonderful delicate flavor of the mozzeralla. But, then again, maybe I'm wrong ...


I think if you toasted some slivers of garlic and sprinkled them on the finished plate it would definitely add to the flavor - even though good mozzarella and good tomatoes are hard to beat. This is a beautiful recipe - nice presentation, too. I plan to try it for the round of office parties we need to attend.


Beautiful...very pretty.
