Description

Grilled Grapes with Burrata is a sophisticated Italian-inspired appetizer featuring sweet seedless grapes lightly charred on the grill and served over creamy, rich burrata cheese. Enhanced with a drizzle of honey, toasted nuts for crunch, and fresh basil herbs, this dish offers a delightful balance of sweet, savory, and creamy textures and flavors, perfect for entertaining or as a special starter.

Ingredients

Fruit and Cheese

  • 2 cups seedless red grapes
  • 8 oz burrata cheese

For Grilling and Garnishing

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • ¼ cup toasted walnuts or pistachios
  • Fresh basil leaves
  • Flaky sea salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • Balsamic glaze (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the grill: Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat until it’s hot and ready for cooking.
  2. Toss grapes with olive oil: In a bowl, gently coat the seedless grapes with olive oil to help them blister evenly on the grill.
  3. Grill the grapes: Place the grapes on the grill and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are lightly blistered and slightly charred.
  4. Prepare burrata on serving platter: Arrange the burrata cheese on a plated serving dish to act as the base of the appetizer.
  5. Arrange grilled grapes: Place the warm grilled grapes around the burrata, letting the warmth slightly soften the cheese.
  6. Add honey and optional balsamic glaze: Drizzle the honey over the cheese and grapes, then optionally add a balsamic glaze for added sweetness and tang.
  7. Sprinkle with garnishes: Top the dish with toasted nuts, fresh basil leaves, flaky sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper for texture and seasoning.
  8. Serve immediately: Offer the appetizer right away, ideally with toasted crostini or bread on the side.

Notes

  • Green grapes can be substituted if preferred, offering a slightly different flavor profile.
  • Best enjoyed while the grapes are still warm to maximize flavor and texture contrast.
  • To toast nuts, lightly heat them in a dry skillet over medium heat until fragrant.
  • Balsamic glaze adds an optional tangy sweetness that complements the creamy burrata and grilled grapes well.
