What Is Burrata?

For the uninitiated, burrata is basically an Italian cow milk cheese that is made from a mix of mozzarella and cream.

Typical of the Apulia region in Italy, burrata originally hails from the town of Andria. From the outside, its firm outer layer looks uncannily similar to mozzarella, but the inside is a soft heaven of creamy bliss that spills in the most unbelievable way.
