Premium Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Mediterranean Extra Virgin Olive Oil
 
 

1/4 cup Oliveri Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 cloves garlic, pressed
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes,
or more to taste
1 container (9 ounces) ciliegine or bocconcino, left whole, or (8ounces) ovoline, quatered, mozzarella cheese
1 basket cherry tomatoes, rinsed, stemmed and halved (if large)
2 tablespoons torn fresh basil leaves
salt, to taste

In a small skillet combine the olive oil, garlic and red pepper flakes; heat gently over very low heat just until garlic sizzles and oil is warm: do not brown; cool at room temperature. Drain the mozzarella well and pat dry; place in a serving bowl. Drizzle with the red pepper and garlic infused olive oil; toss to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator 1 or 2 hours. Add the tomatoes, basil leaves and salt just before serving. Toss lightly to blend.
