With this new creation, our Chef Ambassador Alessio Da Prato invites us once again into his kitchen, where simplicity meets refinement, and every ingredient has a purpose. There are dishes that don't need complexity to feel extraordinary, they rely on balance, texture and details that change everything
Ingredients
- 1 fresh burrata (200-250 g)
- 150 g cherry tomatoes
- ½ small red onion
- Zest of ½ lemon
- Juice of ½ lemon
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Salt flakes and freshly ground black pepper
- A few fresh basil leaves
- Food Seasoning “Riserva di Famiglia” by Acetaia Sereni to finish
1. For the confit cherry tomatoes
Helve the cherry tomatoes and place them on a baking tray. Season with extra virgin olive oil, salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Roast at 120°C (250°F) for about 90 minutes, until soft, slightly caramelized, and intensely sweet. The slow cooking concentrates their flavor, creating a perfect contrast to the burrata’s delicate creaminess.
2. For the lemon-marinated onion
Thinly slice the red onion. Place it in a small bowl with the lemon juice and a pinch of salt.
Let it marinate for 20-30 minutes, until softened and vibrant in color. The acidity gently tames the onion while preserving its fresh character.
3. To assemble
Place the burrata at the center of the plate. Arrange the confit cherry tomatoes and the marinated onion around it. Complete the dish with lemon zest, fresh basil leaves, salt flakes, and a touch of black pepper.
4. The final touch
Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil. Then, finish with a few drops of Riserva di Famiglia, just enough to enhance the sweetness of the tomatoes and deepen the creaminess of the burrata. The “Riserva di Famiglia” is not simply a condiment, it’s the result of long aging and careful selection. It’s velvety texture and complex aromatic profile add depth without overpowering.
