We used to go to an Italian restaurant that served Burrata on a salad...yummm.
Mozzarella and buratta are not hard to make at home. you have to use a fermentation starter with the milk and a little salt. Let it clot, cut it and put it into boiling water and work it until it becomes stringy and elastic and it comes together in a ball. You stretch the hot mess with your hands and shape it into a ball. Burrata is made with the mozzarella after it starts to cool and is still pliable. I can't remember what kind of cheese they use for the inside. I think it's ricotta.
