Burrata Caprese Salad

Burrata Caprese salad is a spin on the classic Caprese salad. You'll love this easy summer salad - juicy sweet tomatoes, fragrant basil, creamy burrata cheese, fruity olive oil, citrusy lemon juice, and a touch of sweet and sour balsamic glaze. It's quick to make and bursting with summer flavors!

📝 Ingredients

• 1 1/2 pounds (675g) tomatoes, preferably Heirloom tomatoes or other good quality sweet summer tomatoes
• 7 ounces (200g) burrata cheese
• 1 twig basil leaves (about 10 leaves)
• 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
• flaky sea salt (coarse salt)
• freshly ground coarse black pepper
• 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
• lemon juice (to taste, about 2 teaspoons)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Make sure your ingredients are at room temperature (tomatoes have a better texture and the burrata will be more creamy).
2. 2Cut the tomatoes into wedges and arrange them on a large plate.
3. 3Place the burrata ball in the middle or tear the burrata into smaller pieces and arrange it between tomatoes.
4. 4Sprinkle with basil leaves (I like to leave smaller leaves whole and slice larger leaves).
5. 5Drizzle the salad with olive oil.
6. 6Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
7. 7Cook the balsamic vinegar in a small pot until slightly thickened. Drizzle the salad with the glaze.
8. 8Drizzle with lemon juice to taste.
9. 9Enjoy!
