Burrata has a solid outer layer made from fresh mozzarella, which is formed into a hollow pouch and then filled with a soft, stringy curd and fresh cream, called “stracciatella”. It has a milky, buttery flavour that is rich without being too indulgent. It was “invented” in Southern Italy at the beginning of last century, and it’s now a highly appreciated and very fashionable product, loved by food lovers. It can be eaten as it is or matched with almost all ingredients, such as pasta, rice, vegetable, meat and fish.
Add an Italian flare to simple dishes such as caprese or bruschetta, or more elaborate dishes using our burrata to flavor savory pies or first courses.
