Directions
Blend the tomatoes, celery, jalapeno, and garlic together with some water until everything is really smooth. Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer to catch any skins and discard what’s left behind. Stir in the lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, horseradish, hot sauce, salt, and pepper, then give it a good whisk. Taste and tweak the seasoning if needed. Cover the mixture with plastic wrap and pop it in the fridge for at least a couple of hours to chill completely. When you’re ready to serve, ladle about a cup of the cold mixture into each bowl. Top each one with a nice dollop of burrata, sprinkle some black pepper over it, and finish with a drizzle of olive oil.
Creative Serving Ideas
Serve this as an appetizer with crusty bread or crispy crostini. It also pairs well with a crisp green salad or fresh tomatoes. A cold glass of your favorite Bloody Mary complements the dish perfectly.
Storing Leftovers
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consume within 1-2 days. Burrata is best enjoyed fresh, so avoid keeping it for too long to maintain its creamy texture. Reassemble with fresh garnishes before serving again.
