Honey Roasted Fig Burrata

• ​If fresh figs aren’t available, you can rehydrate dried figs in warm water for about 30 minutes. Drain well before roasting.
• Stone fruit like peaches or nectarines can also make for a delicious substitution.
•  If you’re vegan or allergic to honey, maple syrup is an excellent alternative.Another vegan option, agave nectar also brings a different kind of sweetness.
• If you do not have fresh thyme, rosemary is another herb that pairs wonderfully with figs and cheese. For a lighter, fresher note, try using fresh mint leaves or fresh basil leaves.
•  If burrata is hard to find, fresh mozzarella is a more commonly available substitute, though less creamy.For a less decadent but still delicious version, try ricotta cheese.

HOW TO STORE HONEY ROASTED FIG BURRATA:

• If you’re planning to make Honey Roasted Fig Burrata ahead of time for a party or event, here are some tips: You can roast the figs a day in advance. Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator and reheat in the oven before serving.Keep the burrata in its original packaging and brine until you’re ready to use it. Make sure to check the expiration date when purchasing, and consume within that timeframe.
• If you’ve prepared more Honey Roasted Fig Burrata than you can consume in one sitting, it’s important to store the components correctly to maintain their freshness and flavors.Keep the roasted figs and burrata separate to maintain the best texture and flavor for both. Place the roasted figs in an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Store any unused burrata in its original brine in an airtight container. Consume it within 2-3 days for the best quality.
