I have not done it before as such I only sticked to the tips given by the teacher.

• I personally thought it wise to add sliced cucumbers to enhance the taste .

• Cucumber, Basil leaves and fresh tomatoes may contain unseen particle , it's good to wash thoroughly with clean water before usage.

• Making sure your basil leaves passed through hot and cold water makes it more tender for eating.

• Pepper and salt gave my caprese salad a unique taste, therefore I recommend it.
