Burrata is a special kind of Mozzarella from Puglia (for those who don’t know, Puglia is the heel of the “boot” ;)… it is pretty impossible to describe if you don’t know what it is, but we can assure you that it is one of the most loved Italian mozzarellas! It has a soft heart made of “Stracciata” surrounded by Fiordilatte Mozzarella.

Behind this dairy product there is an interesting story on how it is born.

The legend wants that in 1956  Lorenzo Bianchino an Italian cheesemaker devised a way to carry the “stracciata” from one city to another and so with the kneaded-curd of the mozzarella he created a sort of bag to contain the soft cheese.

Well, it’s nice to see how from a “necessity” it was born a great product now really appreciated all over the world!
