Yes, perhaps. A bowl of ripe cherries that have been gently crushed with flaky salt and a spoonful of red wine vinegar and then drizzled over a ball of creamy burrata, with a little sprinkling of pistachios. Yes, okay, that\u2019s better.<\/p>\n<p>There are very few things in my life that require a knife and fork. I exaggerate! But I do love casual, eat-over-the-counter-or-standing-in-the-kitchen food. Things you can share or have all to yourself. Or, rather, I don\u2019t love fuss in the summer, especially with food. I crave cold, crisp, refreshing things. Things that don\u2019t require a stove, or an oven, or even much chopping. And this is exactly that.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-38828\" src=\"https:\/\/smittenkitchen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/burrata-cherries-pistachios-2-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Burrata with Crushed Cherries and Pistachios\" width=\"750\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/smittenkitchen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/burrata-cherries-pistachios-2-scaled.jpg 750w, https:\/\/smittenkitchen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/burrata-cherries-pistachios-2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/smittenkitchen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/burrata-cherries-pistachios-2-20x26.jpg 20w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t know that I\u2019ve ever seen a burrata, a ball of fresh mozzarella stuffed with cream, look so beautiful. The crushed, tangy cherries create a stunning, bright crimson pool around it. The pistachios, a textural counterpart. The only problem is that it is so delicious, it is unlikely to last more than five minutes, which is a problem I am more than happy to have.
