1
Prepare the Ingredients
Begin by washing the cherry tomatoes and basil leaves under cold water. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
2
Slice the Mozzarella
Cut the house-pulled mozzarella into bite-sized cubes, approximately 2 cm each.
3
Prepare the Skewers
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 30 minutes before using to prevent burning on the grill.

4
Assemble the Skewers
Take a skewer and thread on one piece of mozzarella, followed by one cherry tomato, then a basil leaf. Repeat this process until the skewer is filled, leaving some space at the ends for handling.
5
Add Olives
Once the skewer is filled with mozzarella, tomatoes, and basil, thread a marinated olive at the end of the skewer for added flavor.
6
Repeat
Repeat the assembly process with the remaining skewers until all ingredients are used.

7
Plate and Serve
Arrange the skewers on a serving platter. Optionally, drizzle with a little olive oil and sprinkle with salt or freshly cracked pepper before serving.
