Burrata With Fennel And Endive
Recipes
Burrata means “buttery” in Italian and is a fresh cheese made from a mix of mozzarella and cream. The outside thin shell is a pasta filata curd made of buffalo and/or cow’s milk mozzarella while the insides contain a soft, doughy, stringy, mixture of curd and fresh cream. When you cut open a Burrata, it oozes with buttery and creamy panna containing scraps of mozzarella. The cream has a rich flavor and has to be eaten immediately since it is a fresh cheese.
Lime Posset
Recipes
Posset (pronounced pos-it) originally was an English drink made of hot milk curdled with ale or wine and usually sweetened and spiced. Here it becomes a lovely rich dessert. Chef Ash makes it with lime juice, but any citrus juice would work. Experiment by adding spices that you like. This is a wonderful dish to serve with the Sonoma-Cutrer Late Harvest Chardonnay, as the sweetness of the wine and dish pair perfectly.
