Burrata
Once known as a specialty item only found in gourmet cheese shops, Buratta is popping up in restaurants everywhere as the new food trend. a true buratta is well deserving of notoriety, But don’t let yourself be fooled by the imposters.
Burrata is made by filling a mozzarella sac with curd scraps and cream, resulting in an incredibly delicious explosion of milky, creamy, sweet goodness on your plate.
It’s best enjoyed the way the Italians intended — on it’s own or with a few simple pairings. Don’t get the fried burrata. Don’t get the burrata in ravioli. Maybe add a few fresh tomatoes. But definitely add the burrata to your dinner menu for whatever the asking price and enjoy.—Rheanna Martinez
