Have you ever tried burrata? It's a fresh mozzarella cheese that's formed into a pouch and filled with soft, stringy curd, and cream. It's heaven. Burrata literally translates into "buttered", which is a glimpse into it's lovely flavour and texture. It can be difficult to find, look for it in Italian and specialty cheese shops or larger grocery stores.
