A refined version of the classic caprese: replacing mozzarella with burrata makes the dish even creamier and more indulgent. Ideal as an appetizer or a light main course, it highlights the sweetness of the tomato and the aroma of basil.
Wash the tomatoes and cut them into wedges.
Arrange the tomato wedges on a serving plate to form an even base.
Place the whole burrata in the center of the plate so that when cut it releases its creamy interior.
Dress with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, a few drops of balsamic vinegar and a pinch of salt.
Finish with fresh basil leaves and, if desired, a grind of black pepper.
Serve immediately as an appetizer or as a light, fresh summer main course.
