Ingredients

Instructions

In a saucepan over medium-high heat, combine the red wine, balsamic vinegar, and sugar. Simmer for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is reduced to roughly one-third of the original volume and coats the back of a spoon with a syrupy consistency. Remove from heat and let cool.
Wash the strawberries, pat dry, and cut into pieces.
Wash the basil, shake dry, and pluck the leaves. Reserve roughly a third of the leaves for garnish and cut the remaining leaves into strips.
Arrange the mozzarella slices on small plates.
In a small bowl, combine the cooled balsamic reduction with roughly an equal amount of grape seed oil, freshly ground black pepper, the cut basil strips, and strawberry pieces. Mix gently.
Spoon the strawberry mixture over the mozzarella slices and garnish with the reserved basil leaves.

Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
