Since about a year ago when Pamela and I went out to a nice French restaurant for a date and had the most delicious caprese salad, we'd been dreaming about making our own from homegrown tomatoes and basil and homemade mozzarella cheese. Well, a few weeks ago we finally did it! She even bought me fancy olive oil and vinegar from the Temecula Olive Oil Company.
The cheese making process wasn't too bad; it took about 2 hours and it was mostly waiting, but the consistency wasn't quite right so we'll try a different recipe next time. All in all though, it was a lot of fun, not a bad way to spend a Friday night. :)
