Did you know?
Burrata was invented in the Apulia region of Italy in the early 1900s.
The outer layer is made of mozzarella, while the inside is filled with stracciatella and cream.
It’s best served fresh, often at room temperature, to enjoy the full flavor and texture.
The name “Burrata” comes from the Italian word “burro”, meaning butter, a nod to its rich, buttery center.
Drawbacks ⚠️
High in saturated fat, which may affect heart health if consumed in excess.
Low in fiber and carbohydrates, so it doesn’t provide long-lasting energy.
Like many fresh cheeses, it has a short shelf life and must be kept refrigerated.
