Burrata is a fresh cow’s milk cheese made from spun paste , similar to mozzarella , but softer and sweeter and is a typical Italian product. It looks like a wrapping of pasta filata, but its main feature comes out only after the first cut: the burrata in fact contains a creamy heart of stracciatella , the result of the mix between the frayed pasta of this cheese and the cream.
Burrata is one of the dairy products typical of the Italian tradition. Ideal as a side dish or even as a first course accompanied by a salad, the burrata, a fresh cheese with a spun dough, with a soft and filamentous consistency, will succeed in making you enjoy every single bite of your dishes.
Before serving, defrost the burrata overnight in your chiller or fridge.
For wine pairings, this cheese would make a wonderful partner to dessert wines such as Moscato D’Asti, aromatic white wines like Riesling, Gewurtztraminer, Torrontés. A glass of your favorite Brut Champagne such as Duval-Leory Fleur de Champagne Brut Premier Cru would also work perfectly.
Store in freezer. Defrost overnight in chiller or fridge before serving.
