* Early Girls with Fresh Mozarella or Burrata
Posted on September 14th, 2008 by Linda. Filed under Appetizer, Californian, Tomatoes, Vegetarian.
Two Dog Farm’s Dry-Farmed Early Girls are back! There is no better way to savor their sweetness than to generously drizzle the tomatoes with the best extra virgin olive oil you can get, a splash of balsamic, a sprinkle of Maldon salt, and some fresh mozarella or even better, a scoop of burrata. Top with some fresh basil.
Chef’s tip: Burrata comes from Puglia and it’s pretty hard to find even in food-obsessed San Francisco. A local brand called Gioia (I believe it’s made right here in the East Bay) is pretty good. Burrata is essentially cheese curds wrapped with sheets of mozarella. It’s highly perishable, so use it the same day you by it. Frankly, it’s really not that hard!
