"Comparing mozzarella and burrata is a little unfair, as burrata is significantly richer and creamier. It's not like comparing apples and oranges; it's more like apples and supermodels. In fact, burrata means 'buttered,' which is really all you need to know."

Ingredients

• 1 vine-ripened tomato, cored and cut into 1/2-inch slices
• flaked sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
• 1/4 cup burrata cheese, or more to taste

 

• 1 tablespoon torn fresh basil leaves, or to taste
• 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

Directions

1. Place bottom tomato slice onto a plate and season with sea salt and black pepper. Spread burrata cheese over tomato slice and top with torn basil leaves. Drizzle with olive oil. Top with next tomato slice. Repeat cheese-tomato layering process with remaining slices, finishing with top tomato slice.

Recipe By:Chef John

"This is truly and ridiculously easy. The trick is to get the grill grates very hot. And the result? A lightly caramelized surface and a slightly smoky flavor. The insides stay cool and crisp. It's quite a contrast of tastes and textures."

Ingredients

• 3 romaine lettuce hearts, halved lengthwise
• 1 tablespoon olive oil, divided, or as needed
• 2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, or to taste

 

• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, or to taste
• 2 tablespoons sherry vinegar, or to taste
• 2 tablespoons olive oil, or to taste

Directions

1. Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
2. Brush each romaine lettuce half with 1/2 teaspoon olive oil.
3. Cook romaine hearts, cut-side down, on the preheated grill until the cut-side is slightly caramelized but the inside is still cool and crisp, about 2 minutes. Transfer lettuce, cut-side up, to a platter. Sprinkle Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese over lettuce and drizzle balsamic vinegar, sherry vinegar, and 2 tablespoons olive oil over the top.

How to Make Strawberry Jello Cake

Start this recipe by making the bottom yellow cake layer. You can use a cake mix, although you’ll only need half of the box to get a one-inch layer.

If you prefer homemade, simply beat 4 eggs with a 1/2 cup of sugar for about 5 minutes to get it fluffy. Then fold in a 1/2 cup of flour until blended…

Save

While the cake is baking, you can make the jello filling. If you want to use natural jello or agar agar, Simply Delish Strawberry Jel works well as a direct substitute for the jello powder. Just note the package sizes are different than jello, so get the same number of ounces.

Save

Let the jello set while the cake bakes and then cools. When you mix the jello with whipped cream, the jello can still be liquid or soft setting, meaning it has a slight jiggle and running a spoon creates streaks through it.

Save

Whisk it together with whipped cream and you will get light-pink colored filling, then you’ll be ready to pour it on top of the cooled cake.

SaveYou can put halved strawberries on the filling for a beautiful presentation, and raspberries are a great substitute here too. If your filling is too liquid to hold the strawberries, simply chill for 10-15 minutes and you’ll be good to go.

Depending on how big they are, you can fit about 20 berries in about a 4×5 pattern across the top. Then chill for an hour or more for the filling to set.

Save

After the filling has set, you’re ready to add the mirror glaze. Make more strawberry jello the same way as for the filling, and let it cool to room temperature.

If you’re in a hurry, put your bowl of jello in an ice water bath for 5-10 minutes and stir a few times and it’ll be ready.

It’s best to pour the jello glaze over the back of a spoon, which helps it to dribble and avoid penetrating your filling. It’s fine to dribble onto the strawberries as well as the filling…

Save

Once the mirror glaze is on, carefully place the entire dish into the fridge to chill for one more hour. Then you’re ready to serve!

You can make this cake up to two days in advance, as it keeps nicely in the fridge covered in plastic wrap.

Instructions

Cake

Strawberry Mousse

1. In a medium bowl, add 6 oz strawberry jello and 2 cups of boiling water. Stir slowly for one minute to dissolve.
2. Stir in 1 cup of cold water and set aside to cool for about 30 minutes, or until it can coat a spoon.
