Making your own burrata doesn’t have to be difficult or expensive. Here’s a simple recipe to follow to make your own luxurious cheese.

This recipe is a simple burrata variation that gives a very similar texture and flavor to a traditional burrata. A traditional burrata requires more advanced steps and more knowledge to make yourself, but this is a good and quick alternative that is really worth trying!

Ingredients

  • Mozzarella
  • Cream (or ricotta if you want a slightly different texture)
  • Instructions

  • Prepare the mozzarella: Make sure the mozzarella is soft enough to shape. You can soak it in warm water for a while if needed.

  • Make the filling: Mix some of the mozzarella with the cream or ricotta until it becomes creamy.

  • Shape the burrata: Take a new piece of mozzarella and flatten it with your hand or with the help of a rolling pin. Place a spoonful of the filling in the center.

  • Close the burrata: Pinch the edges of the mozzarella around the filling and shape it into a ball. Be careful not to squeeze out the filling.

  • Chill the burrata: Refrigerate your burrata for a few hours before serving to allow it to set and the flavors to blend.
