2 cases. balsamic vinegar of Modena silver quality
1 tbsp. black olive tapenade
2 cases. daily olive oil
Pepper

3 tbsp. shallots, finely chopped
1 tsp lemon zest
Country bread, cut into 3 cm cubes

Steps
Preheat the oven to 180°C.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive & basil oil, balsamic vinegar, black olive tapenade, shallots and lemon zest. Reserve.
Lightly grease the oven rack with olive oil and heat. Place the bread cubes in a large bowl and drizzle with olive oil to coat.
Alternately thread the bread cubes, mozzarella, tomatoes and basil leaves onto 6 long skewers. Place them on the grill and turn them often until the mozzarella begins to melt, about 4 minutes.
To serve, divide the baby sprouts among 6 plates, then top them with a grilled skewer and drizzle with the prepared vinaigrette. Pepper to your taste.
