Capers: rinse them under running water to remove excess salt. Acid\u2013fresh balance: lemon zest adds aroma without increasing acidity; if you prefer a brighter note, add a few drops of lemon juice at the end. Variants Mediterranean twist: add Taggiasca olives and a few anchovy fillets. Herbaceous twist: replace part of the basil with fresh mint. Finger food option: make skewers by alternating marinated mozzarella pearls and diced vegetables. Storage and serving Keep covered in the fridge for up to 24 hours; before serving, bring it to room temperature for 10 minutes so the aromas can open up. Also great for buffets or picnics, served in single-portion jars.
