  • Basil Caprese with Balsamic Vinegar of Modena

    image_transcoder.php?o=bx_froala_image&h=1852&dpx=1&t=1621566847


    I love caprese... like, I could eat it, maybe not every day, but probably every other. I started growing my on basil so I can step outside and grab some fresh basil leaves and practice my “chiffonade” skills (fine, delicate shreds), and make me some caprese. The fresh mozzarella has gotten remarkably easy to locate and the price has also come way down since I originally fell in love with this dish. So the only thing holding me back from a plate of fabulous is finding perfectly ripe, delicious tomatoes. I think I might have to try my hand at tomatoes again... I haven’t had the best of luck with them in the past.

    You can make a meal out of caprese (I have many times), or an appetizer or side dish. And it is a breeze to make.

    RECIPE:

    Tomatoes
    - Your pick but meatier tomatoes tend to do better than watery ones with lots of seeds.

    Fresh Mozzarella
    - The absolute best is always packed in water.

    Extra Virgin, Cold Press Olive Oil
    - Kirkland’s is not only a great buy, but it also ranks high on taste against much more expensive brands. Pompeian is another descent yet inexpensive brand.

    Balsamic Vinegar of Modena
    - It is worth trying to find this Balsamic Vinegar. Unlike the watery balsamics you might be familiar with shaking atop your salad, Balsamic Vinegar of Modena is a thick balsamic, made from a particular grape, from a particular part of Italy. It is much thicker and allows for a beautiful drizzle that sticks to every bite.

    Fresh Basil
    - The dried stuff just won’t work to enhance the flavors of this dish.

    And some might think it heresy, but I truly believe you should salt your tomato slices before starting your layering process.

    INSTRUCTIONS:

    Easy peasy...
    - Slice your tomatoes (and salt them... it brings out the flavor).
    - Slice your fresh mozzarella... or if you go upscale and go for the Burrata (fresh mozzarella stuffed with creamy curd), place that baby in the center of your plate so you can cut and dip into it.
    - Wash those basil leaves with a gentle hand, shake them dry and cup the leaves together. Roll the leaves along the long the long edge. Then finely slice across the roll, producing fine shreads.
    - Layer your tomatoes and mozzarella , or place the tomatoes around the Burrata.
    - Drizzle liberally with olive oil.
    - Give a splash-drizzle of the balsamic.
    - Sprinkle the basil generously.

    That’s it! You are ready to serve and enjoy.

      As a "Premium" member of StreetLoc you can create "hashtags" which we call "channels" in StreetLoc they are on in the same. Most StreetLoc members do not have the ability to create hashtags. 

      Once a hashtags is created, StreetLoc decides how to prioritize it and manage it. Not all Hashtags get given their own images and channel treatment. If you have hashtags that you would like us to review please send them to me by simply listing them in a message. For example  

      I will get one of the team members to review them and allocate an image to the channel for you. This will encourage people to follow your channel and it will collectively assign all posts that use the hashtag   on StreetLoc into that channel. This makes it easier for everyone to search   and see a listing of everything in that channel. 

      There are 2 links if the notification, both are bolded:

      The first link "Recipe: Perfectly Cooked and Pre..." will take you to the actual post and the second link "whatsforlunch" will take you to the channel/hashtag where you will see all content in that channel. 

      At present we display the content of the channel in chronological date order, we are working on new display options that will allow the user to vide the channel by popular and suggested content, but that functionality is only expected to be release around the end of February next year as we are making some major changes to StreetLoc's core to better facilitate sharing of content across the platform. 

      February's release is going to be our biggest jump forward in features and functionality that we have ever made. It is already looking really impressive, but we are still along way off a finished release. We have completed 25 items and they are an additional 127 still to go.

      Some on the improvements currently in testing include: Deeper integration of channels/hashtags across StreetLoc, improvements to badges (verified profiles); extended permissions of rolls in Groups, pages, events;  ai powered moderation and pre-moderation to assist the new rolls in controlling content; enhanced payment systems; fluid currency usage in payments; a donations module for profiles, pages, groups, events; enhanced payments for profiles, pages, groups, events - for example the ability to sell tickets to events. 

      Then there are some bigger improvements that are in the works like: The users ability to export all their own data; GDPR Compliance; fluid reactions (likes) to posts; Live Video Streaming; Auto save forms; The ability to use SVG and Gif's in cover images; Account administration Email settings; Enhanced details in Author Block; Enhanced Privacy controls in groups, events, pages; Enhanced Search across all content including advanced sorting; Mobile App Exception Pages; Improved Video Encoding; A full remake of the Poll's module;  Enhanced System Cache; Events module improvements; Ads support in Video; Enhanced Video Placement in Posts including thumbnails; Enhanced Video Search; Enhanced privacy including the removal of Profile ID's;  Speed Optimization across the Portal; Image Zoom functionality; StreetLoc Embed System (Manage links pasted into StreetLoc) and the ability to embed any time of content anywhere in the platform; Cover (Image) Enhancements to sizes and shapes across the platform; Enhancements to the StreetLoc "Education" Classes, Courses, Degrees, Payments; Fluid sharing across the platform; Auto image orientation with AI assist; Enhancement to the Stories modules; Granular permissions across the platform to filter posts and content; Recommended People module enhancements; Mature Audience Content Filters; Copy to Clipboard across all module and items on platform; Enhanced Marketplace and connectivity to fluid currency and payments system; New Page Layouts; Member access to Analytics for Page, Event and Group management; Enhanced Maps and Location management; Better Favorites management; Timeline improvements to support files and not just posts; a new Rooms Module. 


      This is going to be a very big milestone in StreetLo's development cycle and there is a lot more on the way before this release.
