Mozzarella’s rich and stylish cousin, fresh burrata can replace it as a partner for tomatoes when you want to serve a more indulgent and less predictable insalata caprese.
To make burrata, the cheesemaker starts with mozzarella – fresh cow’s-milk curd kneaded in hot water until pliable. Some of the curd is torn into shreds, called stracciatelle (“rags”) in Italian. Another piece of curd is stretched into a thin sheet. The shreds are mixed with heavy cream and then encased in the sheet, like jewels in a drawstring pouch.
