To solve the problem of stuffing the burrata correctly.
Use a cup, flatten the hot ball of curd like a mini pizza.
Put the center in the cup with the edges hanging around and over the rim.
Fill top the desired amount( not super heavy or you’ll break the skin). Then gently pull the edges up and pinch a knot at the top ( like a scamorrza).
Ever so gently, place it in a supersaturated salt solution for 5 minutes and eat.
( Mozzarealla maker 40+ years).

Glad it’s helpful! I can’t vouch for the authenticity, but based on everything I could read about how it’s made, this is at least a fair approximation of the real thing. I hope you have good success with it!

Thank you so much! In NYC this is all the rage at the restaurants and I have been wanting to make it. I already made mozzarella from Ricki Carrolls’s 30 minute recipe, so adapting that recipe is perfect and shouldn’t be difficult. I found online some people filling it with marscarpone or ricotta (fake way). I was trying to find the real one with the stratchiatella filling, which you provided, so thank you so much!!!

Oh my Lord…sculptural shapes, tomatoes ripe and red, just the idea of wrapping a mozzarella crust around mozz and cream…that is so voluptuous it must be illegal in certain counties.
