💡 Chef's Tip

For best results, use burrata that is very fresh, taking it out of the refrigerator a few minutes before serving. You can add some citrus zest for extra flavor. For variety, try it with grapefruit or yuzu. This recipe can be prepared in advance: arrange the ingredients and finish just before serving.
