Burrata Caprese Salad
Report
A simple summer classic using fresh burrata cheese, ripe tomatoes, and basil.
Share:
Ingredients
- 1 cup stale bread (cut into small pieces)
- 3 tablespoon olive oil (divided)
- 8 oz arugula
- ½ lemon (juiced)
- 2 cups cherry tomatoes (cut in half or other ripe tomatoes)
- ½ cup basil (chiffonade cut or left whole)
- 2 balls of burrata (one per person)
- 2 tablespoon balsamic vinegar (or sweet balsamic glaze)
- cracked black pepper (to taste)
- sea salt (to taste)
Instructions
- Start by making the croutons. Heat a fry pan to medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Add the diced bread, a pinch of salt and pepper, and fry until crispy, about 5 minutes. Stir often.
- In a large bowl, toss the arugula with the lemon juice. Transfer to a serving plate and top with the croutons, cherry tomatoes, basil, burrata, balsamic vinegar, and season with some more salt and pepper.
Notes
- In a pinch you skip the homemade croutons and opt for store bought or omit entirely.
