    Steps

    Done

    Important, Use Fresh Mozzarella in Brine Sold Either at the Deli Counter or in Vacuum Sealed Packages. Fresh Mozzarella Is not the Same as "buffalo Mozzarella". True Italian Buffalo Mozzarella Is Traditionally Made from Buffalo Milk. It Is Sold as "mozzarella Di Bufala Campana" and Is Certified and Protected. It Is Also Welcomed in This Salad.
