How to Make Burrata

... A Healthy & Tactile Recipe

Making burrata is a classroom favorite, even among the youngest of children. I always focus on showing them how to make foods for meals, not sweets, so that traditional foods become a natural part of their meal repertoire.

Burrata makes such a lovely comfort food!
