burrata with crushed cherries and pistachios – smitten kitchen


Psst: You actually don’t want a recipe for this however I’m sharing the proportions I used, loosely. I photographed a small plate of it with simply half of every little thing. You’ll be happier in the event you make the complete quantity, listed under!

Some extra burrata recommendation: Burrata is at its most nuanced and creamy when it’s been allowed to return to room temperature, or simply under. If you could find them, mini balls of burrata (Liuzzi and BelGioso manufacturers promote them) at all times really feel like they stretch additional in dishes like this. Can’t discover recent burrata? The subsequent smartest thing is stracciatella, which is mainly the creamy, scrappy inside a ball of burrata, however it’s generally even tougher to search out. My favourite simpler swap is a high-quality recent ricotta, storebought or selfmade.

  • 1 pound (455 grams) burrata
  • 1 pound (455 grams) recent cherries
  • Olive oil
  • 1/3 cup (40 grams) salted, shelled pistachios
  • A sprig of two of recent mint
  • Flaky sea salt
  • Freshly floor black pepper
  • Crostini for serving
Drain burrata on a paper towel and ideally let it come to room temperature or a bit of under earlier than utilizing for the utmost creaminess and taste. Tear burrata into chunks and scatter on a serving platter.

Though I’ve a cherry pitter, I want the cherries right here crushed or sliced open. To crush them, use the facet of a knife and even the underside of a heavy glass to press the cherry right into a chopping board or plate till you may simply take away the pit. Tear the cherry in half and scatter over the burrata. Repeat with remaining cherries. Sure, this makes a large number however a scrumptious one: pour any accrued cherry juices over the cherries on the burrata. To slice cherries open, run a paring knife across the cherry, chopping to the middle, twist the edges aside, and fish out the pit.

Drizzle cherries and burrata with olive oil.

Both coarsely chop the pistachios or you should use the again of a heavy pan to crush them into irregular items. Sprinkle the pistachios over the cherries and burrata, adopted by flaky sea salt, grinds of black pepper, and recent mint. Serve with crostini and watch it vanish.
