Ingredients:

What is Burrata: Burrata is an Italian cow milk cheese made from mozzarella and cream. The outer casing is solid but the inside is cream-like. If you can’t find burrata, you can use mozzarella but it will give a bit different of a texture and will take longer to melt. I love to use burrata in salads, on its own, or as a way to make dishes super creamy like this burrata pasta.

Spaghettini: Slightly thicker than angel hair pasta, spaghettini is one of my favs. Traditionally used with seafood-based sauces or oil-based sauces, but I love it in any spaghetti/pasta dish, especially this burrata pasta.
