Mar Vista Farmer's Market Wrap-Up: Guest Poster Today

Hello Mar Vista Mom Readers,

Mar Vista Mom is visiting a Mission with her fourth grader this weekend so she asked me, Elise, of Elise's Ramblings, to guest blog. My subject, Chelsea Magdaleno, is an amazing photographer, so she wanted to take the pictures. Unfortunately that means she is not in them, but they are lovely.

Chelsea is making a Burrata cheese appetizer today.(This is not Chelsea. It's the cheese guy.)

(And this is the cheese.)

 

She will be dicing the tomatoes, basil and garlic, 

 

and putting them on a large platter then drizzling "good" olive oil over them, and sprinkling it all with Kosher salt and fresh cracked pepper. Then she puts the burrata cheese (this is a mozzarella-type cheese but with more cream) in the center.

She serves it with a sliced baguette, crackers, or just by itself.

I've actually been fortunate enough to have had her bring this to my house for a party. It is fabulous, but it doesn't last long so make sure you get some before it's gone, if you decide to make it.

Thanks for having me, it was fun!

Elise
