  • 150g of Burrata
  • Ferrari extra virgin olive oil to taste

Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, drizzle with extra virgin olive oil , add a pinch of salt , and dust with a little powdered sugar . Bake at 80°C (176°F) for about 90 minutes. This process will soften the tomatoes and concentrate their sweet flavor.

  • Cook the wheat curls: Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the wheat curls according to the package directions (about 8-10 minutes). Once cooked, drain and season with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil , the drained Taggiasca olives , the confit cherry tomatoes , and a sprinkling of black pepper .
  • Plating: Using a spoon, arrange the seasoned wheat curls on the plate. Top with a few dollops of burrata cream and serve the dish at room temperature to retain all the freshness of the ingredients.

If you want a touch of crunch, you can add some toasted almonds or pine nuts on top of the burrata cream.
