Sinanation

Credits to one of my best friends, Ekin, for getting us addicted to burrata this weekend. We should have eaten so much of it that I think mozzarella will not taste as good as it did before. Coming from the same family, burrata’s exterior shell is made from mozzarella and contains a mix of cheese and cream inside, giving it a white water-filled nylon bag look. It is also made from the water buffalo milk and means “buttered” in Italian.

This tasty snow cone is better served with some salt, olive oil, basil and diced tomatoes. Unlike mozzarella, burrata is not easy to find. You can get it at a few Italian restaurants in town or at gourmet supermarkets.
