About this Event
Join Chef Luciano Schipano for a unique, in-depth exploration and live demonstration of one of Italy’s most famous cheeses, mozzarella, and its much rarer and sophisticated cousin, burrata.
This fun and delicious event will begin with a general introduction to the world of Italian cheeses, and a demonstration and tasting of traditional Italian mozzarella knots with Chef Luciano Schipano.
We’ll then delve into the making of burrata, one of Italy’s unique culinary treasures. Fresh mozzarella is hand-shaped into a small pouch and filled with a combination of shreds of mozzarella curd and fresh cream, also known as Stracciatella. When the burrata is opened, a spurt of thickened cream flows out in a moment of high culinary drama. The cheese has a rich, buttery flavor and retains its fresh milkiness.
Chef Luciano will prepare a few dishes that highlight burrata’s luxurious qualities and discuss other recipe ideas:
- Risotto with mushrooms and burrata, finished with truffle oil
- Pizza topped with mortadella, burrata, and arugula
- Roasted pear with burrata parfait
This class will be a step-by-step hands-on demonstration, meaning you will cook along with the chef in real-time.
