Test Kitchen Tips:
-
For easier prep, purchase a pre-sliced and toasted baguette from your grocery store!
-
Burrata is a soft, fresh Italian cheese, similar to mozzarella, but with a creamy center. Burrata cheese might look like a ball of mozzarella at first, but tear into it, and you’ll find a soft, creamy center, filled with finely shredded mozzarella cheese and cream. It’s smooth, slightly buttery, and perfect for spreading on bread, topping salads, or adding to pasta. For the best flavor and texture, allow burrata to come to room temperature before serving.
