A CLOSER TASTE
About the dish
Burrata and tomatoes form the base of this plate, finished with extra virgin olive oil. Combine the soft cheese with tomato just before each bite. This salad suits anyone who enjoys straightforward combinations where the individual ingredients remain easy to distinguish.
Flavour and serving
The oil accompanies both cheese and tomatoes. As you taste them together, notice how the tomato texture contrasts with the soft burrata.
Unlike the feta salad, which lists citrus dressing and narsharab, this plate uses extra virgin olive oil as its accompaniment. That is a useful guide when choosing by dressing preference. For a shared comparison, order both and taste them separately first: the cheeses differ, as do the ingredients accompanying the tomatoes or vegetables.
What to try alongside
Choose burrata as a vegetable-and-cheese start to dinner. For another soft-cheese combination, compare it with the toast topped with stracciatella.
