My Great Aunt taught me how to make this, so I'm guessing it is an authentic southern recipe! I like it most because you can stretch a few squash to go a long ways! It is also good with any of the squashes - but, my family prefers it most with yellow squash. Even my kids eat it.

Burrata with Garden & Wild Berries, Honey, Balsamic and Fresh Ground Pepper
I have always liked the idea of cheese courses and I am one to order a cheese course when offered. This one I use as a dessert but is also good for breakfast or maybe with some arugula as a light lunch. I have been wanting to try burrata for a long time and low and behold I am finally getting the chance. If you don't know burrata it is fresh mozzarella wrapped around fresh mozz curd and cream. My Cheese lady, who I was lucky enough to teach as a student in culinary school, told me it is mozzarella crack and I can do nothing but agree. Everything in this recipe compliments each other and brings forward all the flavors of each ingredient. - thirschfeld
