What is Burrata?

Burrata is a delicious, creamy Italian cheese made from cow’s milk. The outside is a more solid mozzarella that is stuffed with cream and soft mozzarella shreds/curds. It is very similar to fior di latte but much creamier and richer. It is the perfect addition to salads and pastas. I love it most served with warm grilled tomatoes, as is done here, for a simple but delicious appetizer or side dish.

How to grill tomatoes

Grilling tomatoes couldn’t be simpler. Drizzle tomatoes with olive oil and balsamic vinegar then grill on a hot grill over high heat or in a grill pan until the tomatoes start to blister and char, approximately 10-15 minutes. Season the tomatoes generously with salt and pepper then serve warm.
