Description

An easy appetizer made with the leftover fresh herbs in your fridge and capers over creamy burrata, served with crispy toast points

Ingredients
  • 3-4 tbsp fresh soft herbs (such as dill, parsley, cilantro, or chives), chopped
  • 1 tbsp capers, roughly chopped
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp champagne vinegar (or light colored vinegar of your choice)
  • Pinch of black pepper
  • 6-8 slices of fresh bread (1 inch thick)
  • 1 small ball of burrata
Instructions
  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 350° and lightly coat a rimmed baking tray with ⅕ tablespoon of olive oil.  Line the slices of bread on the baking tray and drizzle the top side of the bread with another ½ olive oil.  

  2. 2

    Toast the slices of bread in the oven for 5 minutes.  Remove from the oven, flip the slices of bread to the other side and place back in the oven for an additional 3 minutes.

  3. 3

    While the bread is toasting, mix the 3-4 tablespoons of chopped fresh herbs into a small bowl with the 1 tablespoon of chopped capers, 3-4 teaspoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of champagne vinegar, and a pinch of salt.  Taste the mixture and adjust any flavors as needed, such as adding more of a certain spice, black pepper, or olive oil.

  4. 4

    Place the ball of burrata on the serving plate.  Spoon the herb and caper mixture over the top and line the toasts around the center.  Right before serving, break open the burrata to expose the creamy center to help people dig in!
