Krazy Kitchen Mom Tips

• It’s recommended that this dish be served immediately or at room temperature within an hour or two.
• Burrata cheese balls usually come in a package of 2 balls. Since this recipe calls for one ball of cheese, store the second one in the original in the liquid-filled container in the refrigerator.
• Uses for leftover burrata cheese:
  • Add Burrata to warm pasta dishes like spaghetti or fettuccine. The creamy center will melt into the sauce, adding richness and texture. Add Burrata to fresh salads with arugula, tomatoes, cucumbers, and a drizzle of olive oil or balsamic. Use it as a topping for homemade pizza. After baking, add pieces of Burrata for a creamy and flavorful finish. Serve leftover Burrata alongside grilled or roasted vegetables, such as zucchini, eggplant, or asparagus.
  • Spread Burrata over toasted bread, drizzle with olive oil, and top with cherry tomatoes, herbs, and prosciutto for a quick appetizer.
