"With its rich green basil, white mozzarella and fresh summer tomatoes, this dish perfectly represents the Italian flag and celebrates these wonderful ingredients. It’s widely believed that the Caprese salad was invented for ex-king Farouk of Egypt, a notorious gourmand living here in exile, when he un-characteristically asked for ‘something light’ after a day at the beach."
