Substitute fruity balsamic of your choice. We like Fig because you can actually skip the reduction step if you're pinched for time. It's made with real fig puree, so it's thicker than most of our other balsamic vinegars!
Ingredients
1 cup Fig balsamic vinegar
- 8 ounce Burrata cheese
- 1 pound fresh dark sweet cherries (about 3 cups) or 1/2 lb. each tart red and dark sweet cherries, pitted
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- ½ cup fresh basil leaves
2 tablespoon Basil Crush olive oil
- Flaky sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions
In a small saucepan bring balsamic vinegar to a simmer over medium. Continue to simmer, uncovered, about 12 minutes or until thick and reduced to 1/4 cup; let cool. This step is optional if using Fig Balsamic, but will result in a neater presentation.
Drain and pat dry Burrata. Cut or tear cheese in half and spread over bottom of platter. Arrange cherries, tomatoes, and basil on cheese. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon balsamic reduction and the olive oil. Sprinkle with sea salt flakes and ground black pepper. Serves 6.
