Great post;Krusk
From what I have read bocconcini is similar to Mozzarella Perlini, it 's origin is Naples Italy.
I love this in the summertime when my tomatoes are nice and ripe.

This is such an easy and pretty salad, we love it in our family. I cheat though and use Mozzarella Perlini (really tiny mozzarella) along with whole grape or cherry tomatoes, and don't cut a thing, except for the basil. Great Post:o)
