Burrata Andria IGP (R)

A fresh cheese made of spun paste originally produced in the

region of Puglia. It’s made with cow’s milk and has a spherical

shape between 7 and 10 cm in diameter. Its appearance is that of a small bag of white paste, with a thickness of about 2 mm. This handmade “bag” encloses a soft heart called stracciatella – stretched curd mixed with milk and cream.

Its name is not random as it’s derived from the method of preparation. The “pasta filata” is ” torn ” by hand to form pieces (stracci or lucini ) of irregular shape and length. Its taste is given by the flavor of fresh milk combined with cream and its unmistakable shape.

The raw material selection, along with the processing which necessarily involves the manual unraveling of the stretched curd and the characteristic closure (head), are the distinctive elements of the Burrata di Andria.

This is a pre-order cheese and waiting period to receive it is approximately 2 weeks.
