Fresh as a spring morning, delicate as the first rays of sun on your skin – that is burrata, a cream cheese from Italy. The name translates as "buttered" and refers to the soft and creamy texture of the balls preserved in brine. Burrata is made up of two parts. The exterior of the ball is made of mozzarella. This surrounds what is known as the "stracciatella" – a mix of frayed mozzarella cheese and fresh cream. Burrata tastes best fresh from the fridge on salad, pizza, pasta or even fruit. It's a versatile delicacy!

How it's done

Pizza dough

Mix the flour, semolina, salt and yeast in a bowl. Add the water and oil, mix into a soft, smooth dough using the dough hook on a food processor for approx. 10 mins. on a low setting. Cover and leave to rise at room temperature for approx. 2 hrs. until doubled in size.

Topping

Divide the dough in half, shape into 2 balls, flatten both pieces a little. Dust the work surface with semolina and roll the dough into circles (approx. 30 cm in diameter), transfer each pizza base to a tray lined with baking paper. Combine the passata, oil, garlic and basil, season. Spread the sauce over both pizza bases, leaving a border of approx. 1.5 cm all the way around.

To bake

Approx. 20 mins. on the bottom shelf of an oven preheated to 240°C. Remove from the oven, top with half of the cherry tomatoes, rocket and burrata, season. Bake and top the second pizza in the same way.
