How To Eat Burata Cheese

I love love love Burata Cheese.

From WikiPedia - Burrata is a fresh Italian cheese made from mozzarella and cream. The outer shell is solid mozzarella, while the inside contains cheese produced from buffalo milk and cream, giving it an unusual, soft texture.

I get the low fat version from my grocery store. One ball serves 2 and is 70 calories per serving. However I cheat each time and eat the whole ball myself, not too much still - adds up to just 140 calories.

The proper technique of eating Burata was taught to me by my daughters best friend's Dad. He is an Italian and infact was the one who actually introduced us to Burata. I initially was skeptical because I hate Buffalo milk, too strong a taste for me, but as I pinched my nose and swallowed a bite, it hit my heart, the melting heavenly taste of a perfectly served Burata. Since then, its a part of our regular grocery list, and here is how we like it -

Ingredients -

Burata - 1
Salt - 1 pinch
Pepper
Extra vergin Olive oil - 1 Tbsp
Fresh lime - 1/2 tsp

Method -

1) Take the burata in a plate.
2) Make a small slit on it with a knife
3) Pour the Olive oil on it
4) Sprinkle a pinch of salt and drizzle some pepper
5) Add a few drops of fresh lime.

Ideally serves 2 :) But cheat like me and enjoy, just look at the calorie on the package and buy the lower calorie one, problem solved.
