Burrata Caprese Rice Cake Tip
Prep the ingredients ahead of time.
- The first thing I usually hear from clients when discussing snacks is “I need something quick”. Although this recipe isn’t as “grab and go” as a bag of chips, it will be much more enjoyable and satisfying. It is worth the extra 3-5 minutes to put together…I promise!
- To quickly assemble these, prepare all ingredients ahead of time by rinsing/chopping the veggies and herbs. That way, when you go to make the snack you don’t have to get out the strainer or cutting board. All you will have to do is assemble!
Storing Burrata Cheese
Burrata cheese is a very delicate dairy product, if it undergoes drastic temperature changes, it can go sour. This is why it is usually sold in small portions.
Once purchased, it is best to be consumed the same day or stored in the refrigerator between 40 – 42F for a maximum of one to two days.
Once you try this cheese you will also understand just how delicious and creamy it really is. It is well worth the short shelf life!
