| Burrata
was invented in Conversano at the beginning of the 20th century. A
cow's milk cheese and mozzarella variety, Burrata has a thin spun
casing and a soft and creamy center, which is made from fresh cream
and unspun mozzarella curds. Burrata is an incurably creamy cheese
with a delicate hint of sweetness in its flavor.
In the Kitchen
Young Burrata is a magnificent cheese, and must be consumed fresh.
Its marvelous liquid center can be scooped up with slices of crusty
bread, and is excellent when enjoyed in the company of a bottle
of San Giovese. Try tossing Burrata into pasta, such as drained
penne or spaghetti. For a truly rich caprese salad, encircle fresh
Burrata with slices of ripe red tomatoes and torn basil leaves,
and drizzle with olive oil. MUST BE SERVED AND EATEN AT ROOM TEMPERATURE
