Stracciatella di Bufala
Stracciatella di bufala is shredded buffalo mozzarella mixed with fresh cream—the loose heart of burrata, also sold on its own as a spoonable cheese with stringy-soft luxury texture. Spoon over pizza after baking, fold into pasta, or serve as a dip. Use immediately; cream separates and spoils once warm.
