FAQs about burrata
Because burrata is a soft cheese, it will have a shorter shelf life than semi-hard or hard cheeses. If you get this cheese fresh, it’s best to eat it immediately or within one or two days of opening. Burrata leftovers should be refrigerated to prevent any bacteria growth.
To store burrata cheese, keep it in its original packaging or transfer it to an airtight container. Place the container in the refrigerator, preferably in the coldest part.
Fresh mozzarella cheese is made from cow or water buffalo milk. It has a firm but elastic texture and can be sliced without losing its shape. Burrata cheese is mozzarella that’s formed into a thin pouch and then filled with a mixture of soft, stringy curd and cream called stracciatella.
