FAQ ❓

Can I replace full-fat cream with light cream?

Yes, you can; the burrata will have less fat.
You can add spices, herbs such as basil, or truffle shavings for maximum flavor!
Yes, you can. It will add flavor to your burrata. For example, feel free to use coconut cream if you want to use the burrata as a topping for a roasted pumpkin recipe; they’ll pair beautifully!

Good recipe. I add some kosher salt and chill it for an hour or so to pull it all together. If I’m super picky I might say pull the cheese apart rather than mash - you get nice long strands of straciatella.
