Make Ahead

Prepare the tomato mixture and toast the bread ahead of time, but keep them separate. Assemble just before serving so the bread stays crisp.

Party Tip

For bite-sized appetizers, use thin baguette slices and serve as burrata crostini.

Burrata Tip

Let the burrata sit out briefly while you prepare the other ingredients so it isn't refrigerator-cold when served.
