Burratina

First produced by the Bianchini Family in Puglia region in the 1920s, Burratina is prepared as a Mozzarella having the same exterior shell. The difference is its white filled paste gets some pieces of cream inside called stracciatella.

Smaller in size than Burrata, Burratina has a soft, delicate texture and a mild, milky flavour with a creamy, buttery filling. It is often served as an appetizer with bread and olive oil or in salads.

Store it in the refrigerator for up to its best-by date. If you open the package but won’t use it all at once, transfer the liquid to an airtight container for a day or two.
