Equipment
- Serving platter
Ingredients
- 4 cups (80 g) fresh arugula
- 20 ripe cherry tomatoes halved
- 2 balls burrata cheese
- 3 tablespoons (44 ml) extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons (30 ml) balsamic glaze
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- On a large serving plate, arrange the arugula and top with cherry tomatoes.
- Place the two balls of burrata in the center of the salad and use a sharp knife to cut them open at the top.
- Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil over the salad, followed by the balsamic glaze.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Toss the salad gently to combine all the ingredients and coat them with the dressing.
Notes
- For the best flavor and texture, ensure that the arugula, cherry tomatoes, and burrata cheese are all chilled before assembling the salad.
- To prevent the salad from becoming soggy, drizzle the extra virgin olive oil and balsamic glaze over the ingredients just before serving.
- Enhance the salad with thinly sliced prosciutto for a salty and savory addition that complements the creamy burrata and peppery arugula. If you’d prefer to keep things vegetarian-friendly, consider adding a crunchy texture by sprinkling toasted nuts such as pine nuts, almonds, or walnuts over the salad before serving.
