16 Facts About Burrata Cheese You Should Know - Tasting Table
"There's no disputing the fact that burrata is currently trending in countries around the world. Though the cultural and culinary origins of this cheese can be traced back to southern Italy, chefs have since discovered that it vibes well with global ingredients like miso, corn, and avocados, too. This article will give you a primer on burrata so that you know what to expect when purchasing and consuming it, how to better incorporate it into your recipes, and how to make and store it."
"Some foods hit the palate differently when served at room temperature - Port wine, for instance, or a bowl of guacamole. Scientists reason that this happens for a few reasons: First, the volatility of aroma molecules changes with heat, and second, our taste buds may be more sensitive to food when it is warmer. Ultimately, the best way to serve burrata is often on its own at room temperature."
Burrata originates in southern Italy and has become popular worldwide, pairing well with diverse ingredients such as miso, corn, and avocado. Burrata delivers two contrasting textures: an elastic mozzarella casing and a soft, creamy interior that melds during each bite. Serving burrata at room temperature for about half an hour enhances volatile aroma compounds, reveals sweet and sour notes, and softens the texture; refrigeration tends to make the balls too firm. Allowing the cheese to warm improves flavor perception and mouthfeel. Proper handling, incorporation into recipes, and storage techniques preserve its delicate texture and taste.
