Toasted Bread With Burrata And Arugla Food

ARUGULA WITH PROSCUITTO AND BURRATA

Steps:

• Put the vinegar, mustard, egg yolk, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl or 2-cup glass measuring cup. Slowly whisk in the olive oil, making an emulsion. Place the arugula in a large salad bowl, pour on enough vinaigrette to moisten, and toss well.
• Distribute the arugula on 4 dinner plates. Place half a burrata, cut side down, in the middle of the plate and artfully arrange the prosciutto around it (I tear each slice of prosciutto in half lengthwise). Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and serve.

BURRATA & SPRING VEGETABLE TOAST

Steps:

• Heat a grill pan over medium heat.
• Add the asparagus and red bell peppers to a bowl. Toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil and a good pinch of salt and pepper. Add the asparagus and bell peppers to one half of the grill. Grill the vegetables, turning as needed, until nicely charred, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, brush the sourdough slices with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Add the bread to the other half of the grill. Grill until nicely marked and toasted, about 3 minutes.
• Remove the vegetables to a cutting board and place the grilled bread on plates. Slice the peppers into strips and halve the asparagus.
• Divide and spread the pesto over the grilled bread. Place one burrata on each slice of bread. Sprinkle a pinch of pepper over the burrata. Fill the empty space around the burrata with the asparagus and peppers. Garnish with the fresh basil leaves.
