Burrata with Marinated Tomatoes
There are 3 important components to this dish.
Marinated tomatoes- Get an assortment of cherry tomatoes as larger tomatoes are not in season and will be tasteless. Then slice them in half and salt them vigorously and place them in a strainer for an hour. This will concentrate their flavors and provide a nice base note.
Good quality Burrata- Head to a gourmet market or cheese store. Burrata is a fresh, young cheese and should be eaten immediately and served at room temp.
Good quality olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Scatter the drained tomatoes on a a plain platter so the colors will really pop. Nestle the burrata among them and then drizzle the entire dish with some fruity extra virgin olive oil and a a nice aged balsamic. A garnish of fresh basil is a nice bonus but not a deal breaker.
