Tips for Avocado Salmon Caprese Salad

Choose an avocado that yields gently to pressure but is not mushy; very soft flesh can collapse under the toppings.
Pat the mozzarella and tomatoes dry if they are especially wet, so their juices do not dilute the balsamic glaze.
Add the basil just before serving to keep its leaves bright and aromatic.

Drink pairing

A crisp, dry rosé
Its refreshing acidity complements the creamy avocado and mozzarella while pairing well with the smoky salmon.

0% option: Sparkling water with lemon

Storage

Best assembled just before serving, as the avocado browns and the tomatoes release liquid. Refrigerate leftovers promptly in a covered container and eat within 1 day; do not leave out for more than 2 hours.
