What is Burrata?

What is Burrata?

Burrata is a creamy, indulgent Italian cheese that’s beloved for its soft, silky texture and rich flavour. Made from mozzarella and cream, burrata has a unique structure. The outer shell is firm, like traditional mozzarella, while the inside is filled with a luscious mixture of cream and stracciatella (shredded mozzarella). This combination gives burrata its signature creamy, melt-in-your-mouth texture that’s perfect for both savoury and sweet dishes.

Originally from the Puglia region in southern Italy, burrata is typically served fresh, often at room temperature, to highlight its delicate, rich flavour. Its name comes from the Italian word “burro,” meaning butter, reflecting its buttery, smooth consistency. Whether drizzled with olive oil, paired with tomatoes, or served on fresh bread, burrata is a versatile cheese that can elevate any meal with its luxurious taste and texture.

How To Serve Burrata Cheese

How To Serve Burrata Cheese

Burrata cheese is a delightful treat that can be enjoyed in various ways. To serve it, start by letting the cheese come to room temperature to bring out its rich, creamy flavour. Here are a few ideas on how to serve it:

  • With Fresh Salad: Serve burrata on a bed of arugula or mixed greens with a drizzle of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and a sprinkle of salt. Add tomatoes, figs, or fresh basil for extra flavour.
  • On Crostini or Toast: Spread burrata on toasted bread or crostini, topping it with a drizzle of honey, prosciutto, or roasted vegetables.
  • With Fruit: Pair burrata with sweet fruits like peaches, strawberries, or figs for a fresh, balanced contrast of flavours.
  • As a Starter: Simply place the burrata on a platter and serve with some extra virgin olive oil, sea salt, and a few cracked black peppercorns for a simple yet elegant starter.

Whether as part of a salad, atop bread, or simply drizzled with olive oil, burrata is a luxurious addition to any meal.
