Notes
- Overripe peaches may be too soft and mushy, while underripe peaches may be too hard and lacking in flavor. When gently squeezed, a perfectly ripe peach should have a little give but shouldn't feel too soft or mushy.
- While fresh mozzarella balls are the traditional choice for a caprese salad, you can experiment with different types of mozzarella. Burrata, a creamier and more delicate mozzarella, can add a luxurious texture to the salad. Smoked mozzarella also pairs well with the sweetness of the peaches.
- Try adding some sliced prosciutto for a salty, savory twist. Or mix in some fresh mint or basil leaves for an extra burst of herbal flavor.
