Basil recipes

Cherry tomatoes, basil, fresh mozzarella are always a delicious combination, here by spinning out the juice from cherry tomatoes to make the salad tasty but not watery. You can use this technique in all the tomato salads. And the reduction of the tomato juice adds the tangy flavor to the dressing.
