Burratta Cheese–Served two ways….

Burratta Cheese is made from Mozzarella and Cream.  The outer layer resembles fresh mozzarella, but the real surprise is when you cut into it and the cream oozes out. If you are lucky enough to find a good source, you must consume right away.  The shelf life is only a couple of days.  I found mine at an Italian Restaurant on Larchmont at Hancock Park – a neighborhood in Los Angeles.

The two preparations I love are:

1. Arugula and sliced nectarines ( developed by my daughter Courtney)

2. Parma Prosciutto and Arugula drizzled with Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Balsamic Vinegar
