Burrata Cheese

Curious about Burrata cheese? Love the creamy taste of fresh cheese but hate the price tag that comes with it? Then follow along as executive Chef Andy demonstrates how to make the Italian cheese yourself! 

Beautifully balanced in taste, Burrata is a perfect blend of contrasting textures: cow or buffalo milk cheese made from mozzarella and pure cream. The outer shell is solid mozzarella, while the inside contains “stracciatella” (pieces of fresh mozzarella) and cream, giving it and unusually soft texture. 

Woven, spun and shaped by artisans in the heel of Italy, Burrata is served fresh at room temperature alongside ripe tomatoes, basil and crusty bread with a light drizzle of olive oil. Or let it add contrast to ripe berries, summer vegetables, honeydew melon and grilled figs with balsamic vinegar reduction. 

In this 3 hours class you’ll learn: 

• Basic techniques to experiment with any type of cheese making at home 
• What type of milk works best for fresh cheese 
• An easy and delicious mozzarella recipe 
• The traditional Burrata recipe from Apulia 

We will have some hands-on fun as we stretch and test the curds together. At the end of the class we’ll taste the cheese and Chef Andy will pair it with some of his newest dishes. 

You go home with: 

• Recipes of the cheeses made in class 
• Fresh Burrata cheese
