quality, and how food makes them feel — without obsessing over rules.
Because good food doesn’t need to be complicated to feel thoughtful.
Add more cheese. Add extra pesto. Pour the wine.

Make it Yours
In a salad bowl, combine the bocconcini, arugula, cherry tomatoes and strawberries with edit* Classic Pesto.
Toss gently until everything is lightly coated. Serve chilled with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, balsamic reduction, and freshly cracked pepper.
Tiny edit: Balsamic Reduction
Pour half a bottle of balsamic vinegar into a saucepan with 3 tablespoons of water. Simmer slowly over low heat until reduced to roughly one-eighth of its original volume, creating a thick, glossy consistency. Refrigerate and use to finish salads, roasted vegetables, sandwiches and more.
