This is an easy and creative recipe with seasonal fruit that could become your summer dish. Burrata is a fresh Italian cheese made from cow’s or buffalo’s milk. The outer shell is solid like mozzarella, while the inside contains stracciatella and cream, giving it an unusual, soft and delicious texture.
Due to its center rich in cream, burrata is high in fat, therefore small portions are suggested. Cantaloupe melon, a summer tasty and refreshing fruit, is packed with many nutrients such as vitamins, minerals (in particular potassium), water (about 92%) and fiber.
